A proposito di questo titolo
This episode is slightly different as I take a look at the story of a female body snatcher based just outside of Edinburgh.
Women didn't often get as involved in the body snatching trade, and so it's quite unusual to find a case where the woman has carried out such a prominent role.
Our story today takes us back to 1829 and to the parish of Lasswade in Midlothian, where Helen Miller, a lady once married to a body snatcher, turned informant and started offering a helping hand to the body snatchers of Edinburgh.
