In the summer of 1911, Dody McCleland, England's first female autopsy surgeon, must prove her innocence when she is framed for the murder of a scullery maid who died from a bungled criminal abortion. - Penguin Putnam
In the scorching summer of 1911, London is a hotbed of political activity as women fight for their equality and Germany starts to pose a dangerous threat. But Dody McCleland, Englandâs first female autopsy surgeon, has more immediate concernsâsuch as finding out whoâs trying to frame her for murder…
A distraught scullery maid appears at Dodyâs Womenâs Clinic begging for an abortion. It turns out she has a case of lead poisoning, which Dody believes she took to induce a miscarriage. Instead of reporting the girl to the authorities, Dody decides to council her and prescribes an antidote. But days later, the maid is found dead from a bungled criminal abortionâand the coroner receives a series of anonymous letters accusing Dody of the crime.
Now, Dody has to find out who has framed her for the maidâs murderâor else sheâll be embroiled in a criminal trial. Chief Inspector Pike is working undercover on another case, playing the piano for an exotic dancer who may be spying for the Germans, but when he hears Dodyâs in trouble, he insists on lending a hand. But as Pike and Dody are about to discover, sheâs not only fighting for her career, but for her life, too… - Random House, Inc.
