- Open Road Integrated MediaBodies that wonât stay buriedâis it a practical joke? Or murder?ÂLord Fitzroy-Hammond of Resurrection Row has been dead and buried three weeks when he turns up sitting atop a hansom cab. Grave robbing, though a crime, isnât Inspector Thomas Pittâs usual fare. But when the macabre joke is repeated, and the manâs corpse is found sitting in the family pew the Sunday following his second interment, Pitt begins to wonder if perhaps thereâs some message in it. The case grows increasingly bizarre as other disinterred bodies appear.ÂA new mother, Charlotte Pitt only takes a cursory interest in the grave robbing case until she hears Thomas mention the name of her late sisterâs husband, Dominic Corde, as a possible suspect. As Pitt follows leads into the slums and rookeries, Charlotte, too, is drawn into the politics and horrors of greed and exploitation.ÂFor Pitt and Charlotte, what begins as a mysterious case of musical corpses, becomes a deadly pursuit through the London underworld of pornographic photographers, brothels, and sweatshops.
- Open Road Integrated MediaSome bodies just wonât stay buried . . .âFor readers longing to be in 1890s London, Perryâs tales are just the ticketâ (Chicago Tribune).
