[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: Bento Books, Inc.], London, 1770. Brilliant physician Daniel Barton and his students are pioneering the modern science of anatomy with cadavers supplied by the "resurrection men" who prowl cemeteries for fresh graves. But their position becomes precarious with the appearance of two unexpected corpses: a boy with amputated limbs and a man without a face. When magistrate Sir John Fielding and his Bow Street Runners become involved, Barton's students must clear their teacher's name by uncovering the origin of the corpses-and their connection to Nathan Cullen, an aspiring poet recently arrived in London's coffee houses whose work attracts the wrong kind of attention from publishers. Hiroko Minagawa is a bestselling author of mystery, suspense, and fantasy novels, having published over 100 books in Japan since 1970. She has received numerous literary awards, including the Naoki Prize (1973, 1986) and the Japan Mystery Literature Prize (2012). The Resurrection Fireplace won the Honkaku Mystery Grand Prize in 2013. Despite her acclaim in Japan, this book is the first published English translation of one of her novels.
