Estero is in an uproar following corrupt President Fuerte's most brazen move yet in his quest to stay in power: his election night ploy, with the help of his superpowered henchman Hector, to hypnotize the country into believing that he--and not Magdalia Palacio, the rightful winner--received more votes. Luckily, Cabot escapes Hector's trance and uses her own mind-controlling ability to help her team of supers see the truth about the stolen election; together they begin the process of slowly un-brainwashing the citizenry.

When the president and Hector launch another attack, it becomes clear they won't go away quietly. With the inauguration looming, the Forgotten Five and their allies will need to undertake a daring raid on the presidential palace that requires all of their smarts and supernatural abilities to execute, and go face to face with a super more dangerous than any they've fought before. Can they knock Hector and Fuerte out of commission, ensure Magdalia takes power, and make Estero safe for its supernatural citizens, once and for all?

Hazel Sinnett is alone and half-convinced the events of the year before—the immortality, Beecham’s vial—were a figment of her imagination. She doesn’t even know if Jack is alive or dead. All she can really do now is treat patients and maintain Hawthornden Castle as it starts to decay around her.

When saving a life leads to her arrest, Hazel seems doomed to rot in prison until a message intervenes: Hazel has been specifically requested to be the personal physician of Princess Charlotte, the sickly granddaughter of King George III. Soon Hazel is dragged into the glamor and romance of a court where everyone has something to hide, especially the enigmatic, brilliant members of a social club known as the Companions to the Death.

As Hazel’s work entangles her more and more with the British court, she realizes that her own future as a surgeon isn't the only thing at stake for her. Malicious forces are at work in the monarchy, and Hazel may be the only one capable of setting things right.

A gothic tale full of mystery and romance about a willful female surgeon, a resurrection man who sells bodies for a living, and the buried secrets they must uncover together.

Edinburgh, 1817. Hazel Sinnett is a lady who wants to be a surgeon more than she wants to marry. Jack Currer is a resurrection man who’s just trying to survive in a city where it’s too easy to die.

When the two of them have a chance encounter outside the Edinburgh Anatomist’s Society, Hazel thinks nothing of it at first. But after she gets kicked out of renowned surgeon Dr. Beecham’s lectures for being the wrong gender, she realizes that her new acquaintance might be more helpful than she first thought. Because Hazel has made a deal with Dr. Beecham: if she can pass the medical examination on her own, the university will allow her to enroll. Without official lessons, though, Hazel will need more than just her books – she’ll need bodies to study, corpses to dissect.

Lucky that she’s made the acquaintance of someone who digs them up for a living, then.

But Jack has his own problems: strange men have been seen skulking around cemeteries, his friends are disappearing off the streets. Hazel and Jack work together to uncover the secrets buried not just in unmarked graves, but in the very heart of Edinburgh society.

Net vriende. Dis al wat hulle is, sweer Karabo en Will. En dis waar.

Karabo het immers twee beloftes wat soos die Sondag-blues oor haar kop hang. Haar belofte aan haar tannie: dat sy nie eensaam en sonder liefde sou sterf soos sy nie. En haar belofte aan haarself: dat sy “die een” sal kry voor haar haar internskap by die hospitaal volgende jaar verby is. En Will, met sy motorfiets en leerbaadjies, is te wild om vir ewig aan iemand vasgeketting te wees, veral nie iemand soos sy nie. Hy slaan dan in kolle uit as iemand net “langtermynverhouding” noem.

So hulle is net pelle. Regtig. En pelle mag nie vryers word nie – dis algemene kennis.

Behalwe vir die klein feitjie dat Will heeltemal Karabo se hart gesteel het ... en sy het nie ’n idee hoe om dit terug te kry voor haar selfopgelegde sperdatum nie.
