A Corruption of Blood

⭐⭐⭐⭐

I really love historical fiction mysteries that incorporate real life people and events. So this one was right up my alley. On top of that, I loved it was set in Edinburgh. I can't say I have read too many mysteries set in Scotland in the 1800s. This is the third book in an ongoing (I assume) series, and it holds up very well as a standalone. The writing was brilliant. It was well paced and kept me turning the pages. The plot was intriguing. Dark, heartbreaking, and at times grisly. The characters themselves were also very likable. The one issue I had was the ending. Wasn't a fan of some of the decisions made. All in all, this was a cracking good read and gets two thumbs up from yours truly.
