Description
It is 1650 and a baby lies dead before it even drew breath. A young servant girl, terrified and alone, is accused of its murder and sent to the gallows. Protesting her innocence, Anne Green is hanged. Moments later her lifeless body is lifted down from the scaffold and carried to the College of Physicians for brutal dissection. But as Anne's corpse lies on the table and the doctors assemble, a strange rattle is heard in her throat. Could she still be alive?
