Publisher's Summary
A dark and richly atmospheric thriller, perfect for fans of Laura Purcell and Sarah Perry.
London, 1846.
Ramshackle and crumbling, St Saviour's Infirmary awaits demolition. Within its stinking wards and cramped corridors the doctors bicker and fight. Ambition, jealousy and hatred seethe beneath the veneer of professional courtesy.
Always an outsider, and with a secret of her own to hide, apothecary Jem Flockhart observes everything, but says nothing.
And then six tiny coffins are uncovered, inside each a handful of dried flowers and a bundle of moldy rags. When Jem comes across these strange relics hidden inside the infirmary's old chapel, her quest to understand their meaning prizes open a long-forgotten past—with fatal consequences . . .
