Leeds. April, 1824. Thief-taker Simon Westow is shocked to learn that the body of a recently deceased ten-year-old girl has been stolen from its coffin. Has it been sold into the sickening trade of dissection? Can Simon and his assistant Jane bring those committing crimes against the dead to justice?
Thief-taker Simon Westow is used to finding stolen goods, not stolen bodies . . . Can he hunt down those committing crimes against the dead in Leeds?

Leeds. April, 1824. Wealthy engineer Joseph Clark employs thief-taker Simon Westow to find the men who stole the buried corpse of Catherine Jordan, his employee's daughter.

Simon is stunned and horrified to realize there's a gang of body snatchers in Leeds. He needs to discover who bought Catherine's body and where it is now. As he hunts for answers, he learns that a number of corpses have vanished from graveyards in the town. Can Simon and his assistant Jane bring the brutal, violent Resurrection men who are selling the dead to medical schools to justice and give some peace to the bereft families?

Chris Nickson is the author of ten Tom Harper mysteries and seven highly acclaimed novels in the Richard Nottingham series. The Dead Will Rise is the fifth title in the Simon Westow series. He is also a well-known music journalist. He lives in his beloved Leeds.
