Descriere magazin:
The Specimen is a fantastic read! Tense, gripping and full of fabulous characters ... I devoured it in two sittings. – Gareth Brown, bestselling author of The Book of DoorsLoosely based on Scotland’s infamous Burke and Hare murders, The Specimen is a haunting historical crime thriller perfect for readers of The London Seance Society and A History of Fear. ***Walk carefully, lest you become a part of Dr. Burnett\'s collection…Edinburgh, 1826. Isobel Tait does her best to raise her young son Thomas alone, but yellow fever has left him with a scarred heart. Even a specialist, the renowned Dr. Connall Burnett, can do nothing for him. Isobel decides to make the most of the remaining time with her son. Until he goes missing. A chance visit to Dr. Burnett\'s collection of specimens elicits a horrifying realisation: there, in a small jar among stuffed lizards and misshapen bones, is a new addition: a tiny human heart. The use of stolen bodies by Edinburgh\'s medical men is a controversial but open secret. But Isobel can\'t shake a horrible suspicion that the doctor\'s a proxy killer obsessed with his quest for specimens. Determined to find proof, she goes undercover as a maid in Burnett\'s house and soon becomes the keeper of his specimens. She\'ll have to gather evidence, protect his patients, and exact justice?and not get caught. Based on a true story, The Specimen is a mesmerising work of Gothic historical fiction that explores one woman\'s search for truth and vengeance in the darkest of places – where the deadliest secrets lie hidden in plain sight, on a freshly dusted shelf.
