Five women on the run. One ruthless enemy. Love is the only safe place left.

In the glittering world of 1860s New York, Helen Scarborro rules her criminal empire with charm and cruelty, training her "nieces" in the art of deceit, seduction, and survival. But when one of them crosses her, the perfect façade shatters -- and the only way out is to run.

One by one, the women flee across the country, each with dangerous secrets and a price on her head:

HARPER - The con artist who broke the cardinal rule: never fall for your mark. Now she's hiding in the Missouri wilderness with a reclusive war hero who makes her dream of an honest life -- if her past doesn't catch her first.

HOLLY - An angel-faced schemer whose latest scam ends in flames. A small-town man offers her safety, but loving him might destroy them both.

HARRIET - A nimble-fingered jewel thief hiding among war veterans. A tempting New Orleans doctor could heal her heart -- or expose her to the danger she's running from.

HEATHER - Society's most charming blackmailer, caught between a relentless sheriff and a dangerous outlaw. To survive, she'll have to gamble her heart.

HYACINTH - Helen's favorite, poised to marry into wealth -- until a stable hand tempts her toward freedom. Choosing him means turning her back on everything she's ever known.

From Missouri's untamed frontiers to New Orleans' sultry streets and Manhattan's gilded ballrooms, these women will risk everything for love and freedom. But Helen isn't done with them yet... and the final showdown could cost them their lives.
