McGill.Edinburgh, Scotland, 1828. James Willoughby has abandoned his posh, sheltered life at Oxford to pursue a lifelong dream of studying surgery in Edinburgh. The university offers everything James desires-except the chance to work on a human cadaver. For that, he must join one of the private schools in Surgeons Square, at a cost he cannot afford. In desperation, he strikes a deal with Aneurin Nye MacKinnon, a dashing young dissectionist with an artists eye for anatomy and a reckless passion for knowledge. But James soon realizes hes made a devils bargain . . .Nye is a body snatcher. And James has unwittingly become his accomplice, rapidly descending into the underground ranks of the Resurrectionists-the body snatchers infamous for stealing fresh corpses from churchyards to be used as anatomical specimens. Before long, James is caught up in a life-or-death scheme as rival snatchers compete in a morbid race for power.James and Nye soon find themselves in the crosshairs of a pair of opportunists known as Burke and Hare. These unsavory characters will do anything to beat the competition for bodies. Even if its cold-blooded murder . . .Exquisitely macabre and delightfully entertaining, The Resurrectionist combines fact and fiction in a tale of the risks and rewards of scientific pursuit, the passions of its boldest pioneers, and the anatomy of human desire.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52177773986080,"sku":"NEW1496750357","price":17.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81r-A2aY-bL.jpg?v=1786478764","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-resurrectionist-deluxe-stenciled-edges-1496750357","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
