Inhaltsangabe

London, 1830. Patricia Bramwell's husband walks home through the fog with the luckiest winnings of his life, and never arrives.

Widowed, penniless and alone with three children, Patricia accepts help from a kind stranger at the funeral. Within a year she owes him everything, and he has made her pay for it in the only way a woman with nothing has left.

On the night she tries to buy her freedom, he beats her and leaves her for the cholera carts. She is lifted from the cobbles by a pale stranger, and wakes in a ruined attic to a hunger she cannot name, a sun that burns, and a silence in her chest where her heart should be.

She is dead. And her children are waiting for her to come home.

Hunting the men of the Ratcliff Highway, hearing their darkest thoughts as she feeds, Patricia learns to judge who lives and who dies. But the hardest thing about her second life isn't the hunger. It's keeping her children safe from the world, and from what she has become.

A dark, tender gothic novel of grief, survival and a mother's love that outlasts death itself.
