Welcome to Litsy!

History meets fantasy in A. Rushby's tale of sisterhood, betrayal and reclamation revolving around three Anatomical Venuses - ultra-realistic wax models of women - that come to life at night to murder men who have wronged them. Men want their bodies. They want revenge. Seoul, present day: Antiques dealer Alys is paid a vast sum of money to transport one of three highly coveted Anatomical Venuses to the UK ... and then destroy it. It's a moment she's waited years for, and an offer she can't refuse. London, 1769: After a chance meeting at the Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens, young and inexperienced Eleanor is promised a life of luxury by the beautiful and charismatic Elizabeth and her protege, Emily. All she has to do is allow Elizabeth complete control of her destiny. In a darkly compelling and magical plot, prepare to discover the dangerous secret shared by these four women - a secret that spans centuries, and which will unearth horrors not of this world.
