Still waiting my turn for "The Alienist", but ran across this book in the meantime. Set in 1840 Britain. Lots of background lifestyle stuff. I'm a minor expert in Victorian vocabulary, and I'm using the dictionary and Wikipedia links in my Kindle to define words and terms more often than I have for many years. That alone makes it interesting to me.
Anyway, a nice, gory murder mystery, in a setting so different from our world that it might as well be science fiction. 8->
Book 1 in a series, by Harriet Smart.
