Description
Set against the shadowy world of nineteenth-century anatomy schools, this atmospheric historical mystery follows a young woman drawn into the dangerous trade of procuring bodies for medical study. As grave robbing, murder, and scientific ambition collide, she must navigate a society where the pursuit of knowledge can come at a devastating human cost. Rich in period detail and suspense, the novel explores class, gender, morality, and the uneasy boundary between medical progress and exploitation.
