Harris's aristocratic soldier-turned-sleuth Sebastian St. Cyr when his friend, surgeon and "anatomist" Paul Gibson, illegally buys the cadaver of a young man. 6th book in the series.

This is an excellent historical mystery series. I have read 6 books so far.
pick1814 London 15th book in series but can be read as standalone. Sebastian St Cyr & his wife, Hero, are asked to solve the murder of Nicholas Hayes who was accused of murdering a French woman 15 years earlier. I learned lots of well-researched history about the East India Co and their opium smuggling & Napoleon‘s defeat. Unique characters & plot make for a book that held my attention all the way through. Thanks NetGalley and publisher. Recommended.
pickMurder of eight prostitutes at a London house of refuge provides Sebastian St. Cyr with yet another puzzle. Hero, the daughter of Lord Jarvis, asks St. Cyr's help in tracking down those responsible. Hero finds no shortage of suspects. Action keeps the plot moving & makes for a fast-paced read. Need to read the next book to find out more about the relationship of Hero and Sebastian. I would recommend to those who love historical mystery.
pick3rd book of Sebastian St. Cyr series. C.S. Harris is an excellent writer and had me hooked from beginning to end. Very atmospheric of dark underside Regency London. Plot is flawlessly constructed with lots of twists and turns. Characters are well-drawn. Looking forward to the next book. I recommend this series to those who like historical fiction, romance, mystery. You should read in order and start with the first book, What Angels Fear.
Starting to read this for a group read with @Andrew65 on LT. It‘s the 3rd book in the series. This series is set in 1811 in Regency England. They feature aristocratic ex-spy Sebastian St. Cyr who is an excellent character to follow. Lots of political intrigue with romance and mystery. Book 1 is What Angels Fear and is a great start to the series.
