Donna Freed with Marisa Haetzman, one half of Ambrose Parry
Update: 2023-05-17
Description
Donna Freed meets Marisa Haetsman, one half of the husband-wife writing partnership, Ambrose Parry, authors of a series of medical murder mysteries set in Victorian Edinburgh. Marisa sets the scene for the latest, Voices of the Dead, which takes place in 1853 when Edinburgh while still sceptical of medical men in the wake of the Burke and Hare murders is experiencing a resurgence in interest in mesmerism and chloroform has just been as an early anaesthetic for use in childbirth.
Former Consultant Anaesthetist, Marisa made a mid-life decision to study the history of medicine. She discovered tales of medical hijinks so wild that her husband, best-selling crime writer Chris Brookmyre, suggested that they join forces and exploit the rich possibilities of invention and murder in the Victorian Age.
