Acerca de esta escucha

A female undertaker in Victorian London suspects death by unnatural causes in a mystery "rich with historical incidents and details" (Publishers Weekly).

Only a woman with an iron backbone could succeed as an undertaker in Victorian England, but Violet Morgan takes great pride in her trade. While her husband, Graham, is preoccupied with elevating their station in society, Violet is cultivating a sterling reputation for Morgan Undertaking. She is empathetic, well-versed in funeral fashions, and comfortable with death's role in life - until its chilling rattle comes knocking on her own front door.

Violet's peculiar but happy life soon begins to unravel as Graham becomes obsessed with his own demons and all but abandons her as he plans a vengeful scheme. And the solace she's always found in her work evaporates like a departing soul when she suspects that some of the deceased she's dressed have been murdered. When Graham disappears, Violet takes full control of the business and is commissioned for an undertaking of royal proportions. But she's certain there's a killer lurking in the London fog, and the next funeral may be her own.

I thoroughly enjoyed the story but there were a lot of different plots going on with a lot of information. If you don't mind a bit of a history lesson that doesn't have much to do with the main character, then you will enjoy this book.

A lot of information!

The writing was clever and carefully researched, which I greatly appreciated. The main character is someone I could personally get behind and be a cheerleader for. And, it was pretty clean - which was such a happy surprise!

10/10 to the author!

my ONLY complaint has to be that the performance was lacking somewhat. Every American sounded monotonous and odd.

I really wanted to hear this story but absolutely cannot stand the reader. Too slow and monotonous intonation. Even speeding up the recording could not make it tolerable.

Awful Reader

Couldn’t even get through half the book after trying several times. Too slow and not very engaging

Very dull
