About this book
Edinburgh, 1826
In this city you're only as valuable as what you bring to the table. And youth gets no quarter.
Cal may only be twelve years old, but his father has threatened to throw him onto the streets if he doesn't start earning his keep. Keen to prove himself, he unearths an opportunity through stealthy eavesdropping. Two gentlemen need help transporting an unnamed cargo across the Firth of Forth, no questions asked. Cal is happy to secure the job, but soon discovers that holding up his end will entangle him in a ruthless underworld of thievery, smuggling and body snatchers.
In this digital exclusive short story from the world of Raven and Fisher, take a tumble down dirty cobblestoned streets, sail across icy black waters and hide anywhere you can to observe the dark dealings of Victorian Edinburgh.
