Gabriel Taverner, former ship's surgeon turned country physician, is called to examine a rotting body found impaled on a blade.

But Gabriel is not satisfied and re-examines the body - making the first of a series of shocking discoveries that will lead him deep into the dark underbelly of the lucrative silk trade. As he investigates, Gabriel realises that not only was the death a murder - but even worse, he had a personal connection with the corpse.
