Beneath the surface respectability of the jewel in the Scottish crown lies a warren of filth-ridden alleys and stairs where thieves, murderers, and ghouls of every description planned and carried out their foul deeds. In this book we meet them all-Major Weir, the devil-worshipping black magician and his wicked sister Grizel; Captain Porteous, the corrupt official who inspired the population to mob justice; Jessie King, the notorious Stockbridge baby farmer; wife poisoner Eugene Chantrelle; Deacon Brodie, the inspiration behind Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde; and of course, worst of all, Mr. Burke and Mr. Hare, who plied their swift trade in corpses for the dissection table of Dr Knox.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51959470653728,"sku":"NEW0750951052","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/a-grim-almanac-of-edinburgh-the-lothians-grim-almanacs-0750951052","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
