The Thief, the Fool and the Big Fat King

Every day, hapless hopefuls — or 'coneys', as the locals call them — come to dirty and dangerous London town, trying to seek their fortunes. Who is waiting for them? Tricksters and conmen, that's who — like young Eleanor's family. Eleanor becomes troubled by her family's cunning and foils their plans to catch a coney. Meanwhile, fearsome King Henry VIII has some rather cruel ideas of justice... for everyone.
