Undefeated (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781916797604)

A novel inspired by London's first ever female bare-knuckle prize fighter

'I remember the first time I hit someone.'

In the gritty world of 18th-century London, Elizabeth Wilkinson-Stokes rises from the depths of poverty to become a legend in her own time. When her abusive husband's execution leaves her alone in the merciless streets of St Giles, Elizabeth is thrust into a London she never knew existed. From bear-baiting pits to brothels, from underground fight clubs to grand amphitheatres, she battles her way through a world where every punch could be her last.

Elizabeth fights with fists, cudgels and daggers, earning the title of Championess of England. But in a city where corruption runs as deep as the Thames, she must learn that the hardest fight of all is for a life worth living.

Undefeated reimagines the riveting tale of the world's first female bare-knuckle prize fighter, a woman who fought not just in the ring, but for her very survival. Step into the ring with Elizabeth Wilkinson-Stokes and experience a fight you'll never forget.
