Burke and Hare were two of the most prolific characters to have ever resided in Edinburgh. Their story is featured on The Real Mary King's Close True Crime tour. Owen Dudley Edwards' original novel tells the human tale behind Burke and Hare, their personalities and why they resorted to a life of serial killing and money-making crime.

It's a tale of desperation, of greed and of outsiders. In this novel, Owen exposes how blind ambition can lead to corruption and betrayal. And the thrilling part? It's all true...
