Dangerous Women by Hope Adams is the story of women incarcerated in England for crimes ranging from petty theft to prostitution to murder and then essentially deported to Van Diemen's Land, a British colony on Tasmania. Within this history is the story of this book, which reads somewhat like an Agatha Christie mystery. Both the history and the mystery are interesting and keep me reading until the last page.
