520 _a1816: A rare climatic event has brought frost to July in Dublin - a city stirred by zealotry and civil unrest, torn between evangelical and rationalist dogma. Amid the disquiet, a young nursemaid in a pious household conceals a pregnancy and then murders her newborn. Rumours swirl about the identity of the child's father, but before an inquest can be held, the maid is found dead. When Abigail Lawless, the eighteen-year-old daughter of Dublin's coroner, by chance discovers a message from the maid's seducer, she is drawn into a world of hidden meanings and deceit. Pushing against the restrictions society places on a girl her age, she pursues an increasingly dangerous investigation. And watching from the shadows is a sinister figure who she believes has killed twice already, and is waiting to kill again...
