    The home Helen shares in the slums of the Old Town with her lover William Burke could hardly be more different from Susan’s dreams of an affluent existence as the wife of Robert Knox, one of the foremost anatomists of the day.

    This is the story of the notorious serial killings of Burke and Hare, told for the first time through the eyes of two very different women, whose stories explore the depths of the human heart in a perilous, vulnerable world.
