    About this ebook

    As sheriff of Edinburgh, budding author, Walter Scott, makes a grisly discovery. Bones, bodies, and parts of bodies are found on the banks of the half-frozen loch. At first, Scott assumes the horror is the work of grave robbers. Then living women begin to go missing. A young gypsy, Midge Margret, makes the vanishings the talk of the town, telling of a mysterious black coach in the forest.

      Substance: Sheriff Walter Scott (not yet ennobled) helps solve a mystery of a "Dr. Frankenstein" abducting and murdering women, especially the roving "tinklers" (aka tinkers). Paranormal events accepted as readily as the "new" sciences.Style: Not bad for the genre. Scarborough admits to mucking with actual history and geography, which diminishes the book's usefulness as an historical window, even though the milieu seems faithful to the actual, so far as I can tell with my limited knowledge, derived from the gestalt of reading.
