A Simple Wish

At just fifteen, homeless and alone she is relieved when a kindly stranger named Mrs Bamber takes pity on poor Ruby and welcomes her into her home. But soon, Ruby learns Mrs Bamber is not as generous as she first seemed - she forces Ruby into a life of crime as a jewel thief in Birmingham's jewellery quarter.

La doar cincisprezece ani, fara adapost si singura, este usurata cand o straina buna pe nume doamna Bamber are mila de biata Ruby si o primeste in casa ei. Dar curand, Ruby afla ca doamna Bamber nu este atat de generoasa pe cat parea la inceput - o obliga pe Ruby sa intre intr-o viata de crima, ca hoata de bijuterii in cartierul bijutier din Birmingham.
