Author and journalist Caitlin Davies is the cat’s fancy tracksuit when it comes to writing about women, crime and punishment, as first demonstrated in her 2018 book Bad Girls: A History of Rebels and Renegades. Which we LOVED. Caitlin’s new book, Queens of the Underworld: A Journey into the Lives of Female Crooks, is another brilliant piece of research, which shines a light on an important – and mostly neglected – part of women’s social history. Our Mick got on the Zoom with Caitlin to find out more about these extraordinary women and why society didn't want us to remember them.
