The Corpse Queen
Autor: Heather M. Herrman
Žanr: thriller, historical fiction
Kõvakaaneline täiesti korralik raamat, mis on seisma jäänud :)
Raamatu kirjeldus: PHILADELPHIA, 1855.
As a girl without a family or a penny to her name, seventeen-year-old Molly Green knows her prospects are few. So when an "aunt" unexpectedly sends for her, Molly is certain the church orphanage has sold her off as a maid.
After she arrives at a gated Philadelphia address, Molly is shocked to find that not only is her aunt Ava real, but she is exceedingly wealthy, having built a fortune in the dark and illicit business of robbing graves and selling the corpses to medical schools. Ava wields more power and influence than Molly thought an unmarried woman ever could, and she invites Molly into her intoxicating world, willing to share it all for a price.
Molly melds into her new role as a grave robber with surprising ease and newfound ambition, despite the dangers seen and unseen.
Then, bodies of missing girls begin to appear around the city. Molly suspects chat whatever dark mind is threatening Philadelphia's streets is connected to her new world, but in unmasking the killer, the grave she is digging may be her own.
Hauntingly beautiful, this seductive, tautly told feminist mystery deliciously unwinds in a time where to be a body, in life or death, is risky business.
