The Resurrectionist
Autor A. Rae Dunlapen Limba Engleză Hardback – 30 ian 2025
Roman polițist în esență, The Resurrectionist de A. Rae Dunlap forțează limitele genului prin explorarea unor zone de umbră ale eticii și mortalității. Observăm o structură narativă strânsă. Tensiunea crește cu fiecare capitol. Nu există timp pentru răsuflare. Autorul construiește o atmosferă apăsătoare. Identitatea și secretele se ciocnesc frontal. Apreciem precizia cu care sunt descrise procedurile și mediul în care se desfășoară acțiunea. Suntem de părere că ritmul este unul alert, impus de urgența situațiilor limită. Cititorul care a apreciat explorarea consecințelor brutale ale revenirii din morți din Reborn de Kate Danley va găsi aici o abordare similară a fragilității vieții — dar într-un context polițist mult mai ancorat în realitatea investigației. De asemenea, dacă atmosfera de mister și trădare din A Devilish Slumber de Shereen Vedam v-a captivat, această lucrare oferă o experiență la fel de intensă, însă mult mai viscerală și directă. Editura Kensington Publishing livrează un volum de 336 de pagini care nu irosește niciun cuvânt.

Descriere scurtă
Death is only the beginning...¿¿ 'Breathtaking ... A new talent [in] the field of gothic historical literature'NEW YORK JOURNAL OF BOOKS
'Devilishly macabre ... As dark as a midnight graveyard'PATRICE McDONOUGH
'Hauntingly gothic, intimately told, and wickedly, wonderfully grotesque'MARIELLE THOMPSON
*#1 BOOK OF THE MONTH - AMAZON EDITOR'S PICK*

¿¿
In this gothic, twisty debut historical novel, a young medical student is lured into the underworld of body snatching in 19th-century Edinburgh ... and unexpectedly falls in love.
1828. James Willoughby arrives in Edinburgh with empty pockets a dream of studying surgery. Desperate to scrape together fees for the city's leading anatomy school, he strikes a deal with Nye MacKinnon, a dashing young dissectionist who shows James a way into this elite academic realm ... via the cemetery.
James descends with Nye into the underground ranks of the Resurrectionists - men infamous for stealing fresh corpses and selling them to professors as anatomical specimens. Before he knows it, they are caught up in a life-or-death scheme as rival gangs of snatchers compete in a morbid race for power and prestige. And as James and Nye lock eyes across graves and dissection tables, they soon realise that they yearn to be more than partners in academic crime ...
The Resurrectionist is a thrilling tale of queer love, murder, and the grisly origins of modern medicine.
