Quotes
Add a Quote“Parlor Games is a captivating tale narrated by the irresistible and deliciously unreliable con-woman May Dugas. Her escapades, which span the Gilded Age right through the turn of the century, immediately transport the reader to a bygone era. It’s a wildly entertaining and constantly surprising ride.” Daisy Goodwin, New York Times bestselling author of American Heiress
“Come meet May Dugas, a con artist of the highest order. . . . This jaunty tale through the life of a woman who keeps one step ahead of a dogged Pinkerton agent of the law is a true pleasure . . . . Curl up, settle in for a lovely read.” Kate Alcott, New York Times bestselling author of The Dressmaker
“Biaggio re-creates the deliciously fabulous foibles and follies of a woman born into hardscrabble circumstances but determined to make her way in the world… Sheer, frenetic fun." Margaret Flanagan, Booklist Review
