The Undertaker's Daughter. This item is unavailable.The Undertaker's Daughter

In the shadowed mortuaries and fog-choked streets of Gilded Age Manhattan, Lillian Cross, the undertaker’s inquisitive daughter, defies convention and her father’s warnings to uncover the truths hidden on the dead. With a keen eye for unnatural signs like blue-tinged lips and suspicious wounds, she navigates poisonings in elegant tea shops, opulent high-society deceptions, and fiery secrets in squalid tenements. Across three interconnected tales of forensic intrigue, "The Teashop Murders," "The Gilded Corpse," and "Ashes in the Tenement", Lillian allies with detectives and sharp allies to expose murderers who hide behind polite facades and desperate poverty. A richly atmospheric historical mystery, The Undertaker’s Daughter celebrates a fearless heroine who listens when the silenced speak, delivering justice one exhumed secret at a time.
