The gripping Victorian detective novel from the Costa Award-winner and twice BBC Radio 2 Book Club author.
 
The case of the extraordinary child...
 
London, 1863. A strange puzzle has reached Bridie Devine, the finest female detective of her age. To recover a stolen child, Bridie must enter the dark world of medical curiosities. The public love a spectacle and this child may well prove the most remarkable spectacle London has ever seen.
 
Things in Jars is a Victorian novel unlike any other, one that explores what it is to be human in inhumane times.
