Rezumat The Specimen : A Chilling Gothic Historical Thriller Based On the Burke and Hare Murders - Jaima Fixsen
“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.
