Clem Fatale Has Been Betrayed
"Beneath the pearly lights of the big city, in the alleyways and alcoves painted black with smog, you can bet that there will be crooks and criminals, gangsters and no-good ’uns making mischief in the midnight hours."
London, 1951: Clem Fatale, the youngest crook in the city, is on a mission to find her dad. Jimmy Fatale, notorious jewel thief and leader of the Spider Gang, has gone missing and with him the greatest prize in London: the Fool’s Canary.
Along with her prisoner and/or sidekick Gilbert (depends who you’re asking), Clem sets off on a rip-roaring chase through the London underworld. Racing through dodgy dives, glamorous nightclubs, greasy spoons and secret alleyways, Clem and Gilbert are soon pursued by a host of friends and foes.
Will Clem find her father in time? Or will the most sinister villain this side of the river put a stop to all her plans?
