Moll Cutpurse—the notorious roaring girl who plays fast and loose with the law, dresses in men’s clothes, and answers insults by drawing her sword in taverns—is herself drawn into a scheme to trick a corrupt magistrate into letting his son marry the woman he loves by pretending he means to marry the infamous Moll. But this time, her part in the plot may well put her head into a noose. Can she protect her freedom and her life while also helping her friends… and even find her own unexpected love? The citizens of 17th century London trick, seduce, and hilariously unmask each other in this true-life tale of an iconoclastic free spirit.​​
