Nine impossible cases. Nine children medicine could not explain. One figure in a dark overcoat who is always there when they vanish.Dr. Marcante Coimbra is the physician the great clinics call when the diagnosis defies every book - a man who reads a disease in the way a child holds his own wrist, and who insults ignorance in Latin. Told through the eyes of his nephew Arthur, his casebook moves from a werewolf in the streets of Paris to a vampire countess in Richmond, from a boy who will not grow old to a laughing child no one can wake.Each case is built on a real disease and a real work of art. Each hides a clue in plain sight. And running beneath all nine - a single overcoat, a single obsidian scalpel- is a mystery that will not resolve until the last page names it.A literary medical mystery in nine movements, in the tradition of stories that reward the reader who is paying attention.For readers who love intricate historical fiction, medical detection, and a puzzle that clicks shut on the final page.
