Description
Within the mysteries of the body, especially those who have been murdered, eighteenth-century anatomist Dr. Thomas Silkstone specializes in uncovering the tell-tale clues that lead toward justice.Newly released from the notorious asylum known as Bedlam, Lady Lydia Farrell finds herself in an equally terrifying position���as a murder suspect���when she stumbles upon the mutilated body of Sir Montagu Malthus in his study at Boughton Hall.Meanwhile, Dr. Thomas Silkstone has been injured in a duel with a man who may or may not have committed the grisly deed of which Lydia is accused. Despite his injury, Thomas hopes to clear his beloved's good name by conducting a postmortem on the victim. With a bit of detective work, he learns that Montagu's throat was slit by no ordinary blade, rather a ceremonial Sikh dagger from India that may be connected to the fabled lost mines of Golconda.From the mysterious disappearance of a cursed diamond buried with Lydia's dead husband to the undying legend of a hidden treasure map, Thomas must follow a trail of foreign dignitaries, royal agents, and even more victims to unveil the sinister and shocking secrets in the stones.

        January 11, 2016
        Set in 1784, Harris���s satisfying sixth Dr. Thomas Silkstone mystery (after 2015���s Shadow of the Raven) finds attorney Sir Montagu Malthus, who controls Lady Lydia Farrell���s estate, opposed to her relationship with the upstart Silkstone. When Lydia discovers Malthus dead in his Oxfordshire home, she becomes a suspect in his murder, along with the commoners who will be impoverished by Malthus���s plan to enclose estate lands. Silkstone investigates, finding odd clues, including an unfamiliar kind of rope and prints from a man���s slipper-like shoe. When the grave of Lydia���s first husband is robbed of the rare diamond ring with which he was buried, Silkstone guesses that the crimes link to the diamond���s complex history. Several murders ensure before Silkstone uncovers the surprising truth. Though the backstory can be overcomplicated, Harris���s rich portrayal of Indian influences on Britain, along with fresh twists in the protagonists��� romance, adds appeal. Agent: Melissa Jeglinski, Knight Agency.
