Antidote to Murder: A Novel (Dr Dody McCleland Mysteries Book 2)

In the scorching summer of 1911, London is a hotbed of political activity as women fight for their equality and Germany starts to pose a dangerous threat. But Dody McCleland, Englandâ€™s first female autopsy surgeon, has more immediate concernsâ€”such as finding out whoâ€™s trying to frame her for murderâ€¦

A distraught scullery maid appears at Dodyâ€™s Womenâ€™s Clinic begging for an abortion. It turns out she has a case of lead poisoning, which Dody believes she took to induce a miscarriage. Instead of reporting the girl to the authorities, Dody decides to council her and prescribes an antidote. But days later, the maid is found dead from a bungled criminal abortionâ€”and the coroner receives a series of anonymous letters accusing Dody of the crime.

Now, Dody has to find out who has framed her for the maidâ€™s murderâ€”or else sheâ€™ll be embroiled in a criminal trial. Chief Inspector Pike is working undercover on another case, playing the piano for an exotic dancer who may be spying for the Germans, but when he hears Dodyâ€™s in trouble, he insists on lending a hand. But as Pike and Dody are about to discover, sheâ€™s not only fighting for her career, but for her life, tooâ€¦ Â
