A terrifically funny tale of dark deeds in Dickensian London, from master storyteller Terry Pratchett. Dodger is a tosher -- a sewer scavenger living in the squalor of Dickensian London. Everyone who is nobody knows Dodger. Anyone who is anybody doesn't. But when he rescues a young girl from a beating, suddenly everybody wants to know him. And Dodger's tale of skulduggery, dark plans and even darker deeds begins. • Published to coincide with the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Dickens. • Features real characters of the time, from Charles Dickens himself to James Mayhew, Disraeli and even Queen Victoria.
