London, 1910. A pioneering woman. A string of suspicious deaths. A conspiracy that could cost her everything.
Dr. Margaret Demeray has fought hard for her place as a pathologist in a man's world. But when the deaths of two paupers raise troubling questions, her search for answers draws her into the orbit of Fox-an enigmatic stranger with secrets of his own.
As Margaret digs deeper, she finds herself shadowed at every turn. Her home is burgled. She is attacked in broad daylight. Friends grow distant. And Fox may be ally... or enemy.
With whispers of corruption reaching from London's slums to the highest levels of society, Margaret must risk her career-and her life-to uncover the truth. But someone is determined to silence her before she exposes their deadly scheme.
The Wrong Sort to Die is a gripping historical mystery perfect for fans of Jacqueline Winspear, C.S. Harris, and Charles Todd-where a fearless heroine dares to challenge the rules of her time to seek justice.
