A gothic, mystery and love story. This has a slower plot, and a wonderful main character. Set in the early 1800's, Hazel wants to be a surgeon. As a woman she isn't allowed to learn or dream of becoming part of this man's profession. She finds her way in, but she has to aquire her own eay to study. Enter Jack, a resurrectionist. He sells bodies to surgeons and doctors for a living and meets Hazel.
On top of this plot which is well worth my interest, there is a mystery happening. The city has strange goings on. Something is off and people are dissappearing.
I loved this. I wish the scenery was more elaborate. However, the characters are great, and I lived the story. The last 1/3 was *chef's kiss*
