2021/045: Manners and Monsters -- Tilly Wallace

The French had it within their power to create an army that could never be stopped. Soldiers who would keep on fighting even when dismembered. Yet they had used that power to contaminate face powder instead. No wonder they’d lost the war. [p. 214]

Another first-in-series, this one offered free on Kindle UK. I confess I am intrigued by the setup: a Regency where various ladies (and a few gentlemen) of the Ton have become zombies -- I beg your pardon, 'Afflicted' -- as a result of using contaminated face-powder, a dastardly ploy of Napoleon's mages.
