{"product_id":"the-corset-1","title":"The Corset","description":"The new Victorian chiller from the author of Radio 2 Book Club pick  The Silent Companions.  Is prisoner Ruth Butterham mad or a murderer? Victim or villain?  Dorothea and Ruth.  Prison visitor and prisoner. Powerful and powerless.  Dorothea Truelove is young  wealthy and beautiful. Ruth Butterham is young  poor and awaiting trial for murder.  When Dorotheas charitable work leads her to Oakgate Prison  she is delighted with the chance to explore her fascination with phrenology and test her hypothesis that the shape of a persons skull can cast a light on their darkest crimes. But when she meets teenage seamstress Ruth  she is faced with another theory: that it is possible to kill with a needle and thread. For Ruth attributes her crimes to a supernatural power inherent in her stitches.  The story Ruth has to tell of her deadly creations  of bitterness and betrayal  of death and dresses  will shake Dorotheas belief in rationality  and the power of redemption.  Can Ruth be trusted? Is she mad  or a murderer?","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44884594229301,"sku":"ByrdShop_1408889617","price":91.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/ByrdShop_1408889617_3ef83504-3c55-48a8-b263-3d7861678db5.jpg?v=1766746860","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-corset-1","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
