The Roaring Twenties. A decade freed from the horrors of the Great War. A time of economic prosperity, technological advances, jazz music, wild youth, and Prohibition. A time where vast fortunes were made and a new sense of entitlement arose among the elite of society. And with that entitlement, a thirst for more power. A federal agent working for an agency tasked with investigating financial crimes has been found brutally murdered in a Washington. D.C. hotel. His mistake? Investigating the shady dealings of one of the most powerful men on Wall St. Alone. Fellow agents Charlie Postlethwaite and Gretchen Retrum have now been thrown headlong into an investigation they are ill-prepared for. Far from the world of bank ledgers and files, they’re now forced to get to the bottom of the mystery while avoiding the discovery of their secret agency and the associated problems of juggling their relationship. From the city streets of Washington D.C. and New York City, to the countrysides of upstate New York, and to a small town in Wisconsin, Charlie and Gretchen are in a desperate race to bring those responsible to justice before they become the next on the list to die.
This open access book is the culmination of many years of research on what happened to the bodies of executed criminals in the past. Focusing on the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, it looks at the consequences of the 1752 Murder Act. These criminal bodies had a crucial role in the history of medicine, and the history of crime, and great symbolic resonance in literature and popular culture. Starting with a consideration of the criminal corpse in the medieval and early modern periods, chapters go on to review the histories of criminal justice, of medical history and of gibbeting under the Murder Act, and ends with some discussion of the afterlives of the corpse, in literature, folklore and in contemporary medical ethics. Using sophisticated insights from cultural history, archaeology, literature, philosophy and ethics as well as medical and crime history, this book is a uniquely interdisciplinary take on a fascinating historical phenomenon.
