★★★★★ “…vast imagination, skillful plot twists and remarkably interesting characters.”
★★★★★ “Masterful, original and refreshingly well-written."

A dark Victorian mystery that will have you hooked from the very first page to the final, dramatic twist.

On December 10, 1880, Coroner Sévère makes a gruesome discovery: nine newborns, buried in flowerpots, and hidden in plain sight in Whitechapel. A mortician receives the bodies and vanishes. Clues for the two seemingly unconnected cases are scarce.
When police and coroner learn that the missing mortician might have spent his last moments at the bosom of the infamous prostitute Miss Mary, a series of events is nudged into motion. Lies are unearthed, rumours spread. Yet, the killer remains a faceless phantom.
His secret seems buried forever.
Until the night Sévère requests Miss Mary’s services…

Warning: Prostitution and post-mortems are depicted without apology.
