Things In Jars by Jess Kidd
Set in Victorian London, this inventive historical mystery follows a resourceful, tough-minded woman who makes a living among the city's oddities and is drawn into the search for a missing child; as she follows clues through the underbelly of hospitals, workhouses and curiosities shops she uncovers a macabre trade in bodies and human specimens and confronts painful secrets about identity, belonging and motherhood, with a blend of dark humor, compassion and vivid period detail.
