I just finished this and it’s excellent. I’ll keep this spoiler free but set in Edinburgh in the mid 1800’s, it’s incredibly atmospheric and really plants you in the time and the place. It’s a fiction set amongst real events (of which o know about but others might not) and there was a moment where I saw what was coming and had to put the book down for a minute whilst I mulled over where I knew it was going. Not having the context however will definitely not spoil this read, it’s a neo 19th C story and an absolutely riveting read.
Anyone else read and enjoyed this?
