Dr. Thomas Silkstone Synopsis: The Dead Shall Not Rest by Tessa Harris is the author’s second installment in the Dr. Thomas Silkstone Mysteries series. Those with a pulse are not targets for the thieves of London; corpses are too. Bodies are often dug up and sold to labs for dissection. Dr. John Hunter, a rival of Dr. Silkstone’s, has learned of the poor state of the “Irish Giant” Charles Byrne and cannot wait to get his hands on the 8′ tall corpse. After Dr. Hunter is implicated in a murder, Dr. Silkstone must learn to what depths his rival would go in the name of science. Dr. Silkstone knows all too well, our darkest secrets are not revealed until after the fact.

I’ve read the first three of these books and enjoyed them. They got better as the series went along. I gave book 3 a 4-star rating in my personal log book. If you like period mysteries, you might like these. When I say I read them, I mean I listened to the audio books. I think it helps that they are well performed by the talented Simon Vance .
