Description	British historian Rebecca Stott reads from "Ghostwalk" her bestselling debut novel, just out in paperback. Stott used her knowledge and skills as an historian to write an historical mystery that is both accurate in period detail and involving for readers. A review in the New Yorker commented, "Drawing on alchemy, neurology, animal-rights activism, and supernatural visitations, this debut novel is an ambitious, learned thriller... Stott deploys her research effortlessly." Stott is the author of several academic books on Victorian literature and culture, two books of non-fiction, including a partial biography of Charles Darwin, and a cultural history of the oyster. She is now a professor of English literature and creative writing at the University of East Anglia.
