What better setting for a Gothic murder mystery than nineteenth-century Edinburgh?--Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times [Praise for Kaite Welsh's The Wages of Sin] A top-class crime thriller, a riveting social documentary, and a fascinating historical novel. Brilliant writing. A total gem. A spunky but historically accurate heroine, bucking the most restrictive traditions. The first book in what will, one hopes, be a long-running series. An inspiring feminist tale perfect for the modern age. An exhilarating and atmospheric mystery set in the gas-lit streets of Edinburgh. A layered, provocative and riveting mystery about Victorian dynamics and womanhood.
