About this listen
The prize-winning author of Edinburgh Twilight returns to the darkening shadows of nineteenth-century Scotland to track a killer on a profane mission of revenge.
A wicked Scottish winter has just begun when pioneering female physician Sophia Jex-Blake calls on Detective Inspector Ian Hamilton to investigate the suspicious death of one of her patients - a railroad lineman who she believes succumbed to the horrific effects of arsenic poisoning. The most provocative aspect of the case doesn’t escape Hamilton: the married victim’s numerous sexual transgressions.
Now, for the first time since the unexplained fire that killed his parents, Hamilton enters the Royal Infirmary to gain the insights of brilliant medical student Arthur Conan Doyle. Then a second poisoning occurs - this time, a prominent banker who died in the bed of a prostitute. It appears that someone is making Edinburgh’s more promiscuous citizens pay for their sins.
As the body count rises and public panic takes hold, Hamilton and Doyle delve into the seedy underbelly of the city, where nothing is as it seems, no one is immune to murder, and even trusted friends can be enemies in disguise.

So well written I never noticed any American terms!
Despite the narrator changing, the book was still brilliantly narrated and every character was authentic.
Someone left a review about Americanisms, but to be really honest the plot is so good I didn’t even notice them!! Lol
Just as good, if not better than the first book!!
Highly recommend :-)

A good story spoiled by American English
To much American vocabulary and historical inaccuracies to be credible of time and place. other than that, a good plot and story.

Edinburgh Hamlet
Characters are believable and likeable. This is the second book in the series and I found it just as enjoyable as the first. The author keeps your interest throughout and I look forward to reading the third and final instalment.

Good story well performed
The story was well developed. I would advise the writer to have the story proof read by a native English speaker - or better still a Scot so that American words and phrases don’t spoil a good piece of writing.

Not awful.
An enjoyable listen, unless you know Edinburgh, the history of Edinburgh, the geography of Edinburgh, or somewhat formulaic writing. Better than Nadine Dorries!
