The romance and skulduggery of Sculpted Love, and the same characters, move on to a more threatening phase in Chiselled Features. A fatal accident befalls a horse-drawn tram; in the turmoil, the one-year-old child of Cécile and the fragile sculptor Duchien disappears. In Nancy, the city of the Beaux-Arts in north-east France in 1894, psychic media, a blind accordionist, the steam railway to Metz, the Count’s coach-and-horses, a young detective and an English au pair girl combine in the hunt for the baby. The true historical background and research appeals to readers of Ken Follett, Sebastian Faulks, Nevil Shute, Sarah Waters and Robert Harris. This novel is the second in Marcus Bicknell’s City of Nancy Trilogy.
