Having retreated to her sister's estate, she is determined to find her footing in a society that often judges her for her peculiar interests in anatomy and the macabre. However, her attempts at leading a quiet life are shattered when she becomes embroiled in a grisly murder that threatens to rattle the serene façade of her new home.
As she navigates the complexities of her surroundings, Lady Darby must contend with societal expectations while harnessing her knowledge of anatomy to piece together the clues of the crime.
