Montmorency

Thief, Liar, Gentleman?
Jun 29, 2013Ubalstecha rated this title 4 out of 5 stars
Montmorency experiences a rebirth as it were. After he crashes through a skylight while comitting a crime, his life is saved by a doctor who then uses the thief as a visual aid for his lectures. While at these lectures, Montmorency hatches the plan to lead a double life. He will be Montmorency, dapper gentleman and respectable member of society. But he will also be Scrapper, the lower class thief who uses the sewers to evade the police. Montmorency lives this double life, evading detection, until an opportunity to serve his country presents itself and changes his life forever. This was a fun book to read. The double life of Montmorency keeps readers on the edge of their seats. Updale has created a character that is compelling. Good YA read.
