'Dana Schwartz is one of the brightest of the next generation of young
writers' NEIL GAIMAN

A gothic tale full of mystery and romance . . .

Edinburgh, 1817.

Hazel Sinnett is a lady who wants to be a surgeon more than she wants to
marry.

Jack Currer is a resurrection man who's just trying to survive in a city where
it's too easy to die.

When the two of them have a chance encounter outside the Edinburgh Anatomist's
Society, Hazel thinks nothing of it at first. But after she gets kicked out of
renowned surgeon Dr. Beecham's lectures for being the wrong gender, she
realizes that her new acquaintance might be more helpful than she first
thought. Because Hazel has made a deal with Dr. Beecham: if she can pass the
medical examination on her own, Beecham will allow her to continue her medical
career. Without official lessons, though, Hazel will need more than just her
books - she'll need corpses to study.

Lucky that she's made the acquaintance of someone who digs them up for a
living.

But Jack has his own problems: strange men have been seen skulking around
cemeteries, his friends are disappearing off the streets, and the dreaded
Roman Fever, which wiped out thousands a few years ago, is back with a
vengeance. Nobody important cares - until Hazel.

Now, Hazel and Jack must work together to uncover the secrets buried not just
in unmarked graves, but in the very heart of Edinburgh society.

Praise for Anatomy:

'Lionhearted heroine you'll root for from page one? Check. Dark academia
vibes? Check. Cheeky romantic banter that will make you blush? Check, check
and CHECK. Read this gripping, ridiculously clever tale only if you're fully
prepared to be haunted by its revelations about life and death while also
swooning at the idea of flirting with someone in an open grave' Emma Lord, New
York Times bestselling author of You Have a Match and Tweet Cute

'A fast-paced, utterly engrossing tale of mystery, romance, and cadavers...I
grinned, I gasped, I cried and ended this book breathless and craving more'
Alwyn Hamilton, New York Times bestselling author of the Rebel of the Sands
series

'Diabolically delightful. A love story, a murder mystery, and a horror novel
bound up together in ghoulish stitches' Maureen Johnson, New York Times
bestselling author of the Truly Devious trilogy

'Schwartz's magical novel is at once gripping and tender, and the intricate
plot is engrossing as the reader tries to solve the mystery' Booklist (starred
review)
