wattage26 's review for:

The Wages of Sin by Kaite Welsh

4.0

---

I’ve always been fascinated by the time period and subject of this book. I thoroughly enjoyed The Wages of Sin, despite the difficult and often grisly content. It was a hard book to read at times because of the injustices the main character faced. Yet it also felt very timely because of current debates regarding women’s rights, particularly reproductive rights. I really liked the main characters and am hopeful for a sequel! If you want a well-researched murder mystery set in Victorian Edinburgh, I highly recommend this.
