Her Philadelphia Story (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798342672689)

Who is stealing dead bodies ... and why?

Emma Carter is struggling to follow her dream. A simple country girl from Georgia, she is learning to live and study in the bustling 1890s city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. But women medical students like Emma face many challenges and obstacles unknown to their male counterparts. Will people ever accept a female doctor?

As a sexton, Michael Sheppard's duties include assisting with burials and maintaining Saint Mark's church and cemetery. When grave robbers disrupt the peaceful slumber of the deceased and sell them to area medical schools for dissection, Michael must act.

Emma and the students of the first Women's Medical College are caught in a serious dilemma. How can they learn about the human body without cadavers? Buying stolen bodies is ghoulish and unthinkable. Michael and Emma team up to solve the problem, but the criminals have other plans.
