It’s a hugely enjoyable and well-researched book. I really hope it won’t stay her only published work. I also loved her podcast, Bad Women (can be found on Spotify), which is well-produced and really gives you even more insights into her work and the lives of these women. She is doing a second season right now, on female murder victims during the London Blitz.

She's written a number of books mainly focussed on sex workers. Her most famous work is Covent Garden Ladies which Hulu used as inspiration for Harlots (An amazing TV show.) She's also written some fiction which I think is about a courtesan but I haven't got round to it yet so can't confirm exactly what it is about.

She also wrote an account of a true life scandal called 'The Scandalous Lady W' which is well worth reading and was made into a BBC mini series, also highly recommended.

Thank you, I didn’t know that!
