This one was slow start for me. I had to force myself to continue. Eventually, it caught flame, but really, it was never outright intriguing in terms of the mystery. I found the details of the late 18th century setting more interesting.

Although the author is a little too fond of red herrings, she writes well and displays her historical and scientific knowledge in a way that's both subtle and interesting.

Chose this title because it seemed like another I had enjoyed in the past called "The Alienist." It wasn't. A simple and quick read from what appears to be a new author with (perhaps) promise for future offerings.
