AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Fanny wants out. Her outback town is all mining and money, no one will read her short story about a stallion, and now the people of the town are getting sick. Old Doctor Littlewood's reverse orchiectomies aren't helping. But when the dashing and visionary Doctor Waterman turns up, Fanny might just have a reason to stay. Until the sick start devouring the living.

'Fanny will have to take a radical approach to healthcare if she wants to get out of town alive.'
