Synopsis

THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

'Striking, darkly funny and heartfelt ... Grabs you from the first page and doesn't let go' Ferdia Lennon, author of Glorious Exploits

'Crisp, transportive, uplifting ... I loved it!' Bonnie Garmus, author of Lessons in Chemistry

'A bold, funny and imaginative journey through Tudor England ... A real treat' Joanna Quinn, author of The Whalebone Theatre

Born a vagabond, Tibb Ingleby has never had a roof of her own. Her mother has taught her that if you're not too bound by the Big Man's rules, there are many ways a woman can find shelter in this world. But now her ma is gone.

As she journeys through the fields and forests of medieval England, Tibb discovers that there are people who will care for her, as well as those who mean her harm. And there are a great many others who are prepared to believe just about anything...

So, when the opportunity presents itself to escape the shackles society has placed on them, Tibb and her new friends conjure an audacious plan: her greatest trickerie yet. But before they know it, their hoax takes on a life of its own, drawing crowds - and vengeful enemies - to their door.

A tale of belief and superstition, kinship and courage, A Little Trickerie introduces a ragtag cast of characters and an unforgettable, endearing and distinctly unangelic heroine.

'Joyful and highly original ... Rosanna Pike absolutely nails Tibb's voice' The Times

'Absolutely raucous and vividly alive' India Knight

'[Written] with great panache ... A book [that] is unapologetically itself ... Lovable, fun and emotionally juicy' Guardian
