Only a woman with an iron backbone could succeed as an undertaker in Victorian London, but Violet Morgan takes great pride in her trade. While her husband, Graham, is preoccupied with elevating their station in society, Violet is cultivating a sterling reputation for Morgan Undertaking. She is empathetic, well-versed in funeral fashions, and comfortable with death's role in life--until its chilling rattle comes knocking on her own front door. Violet's peculiar but happy life soon begins to unravel as Graham becomes obsessed with his own demons and all but abandons her as he plans a vengeful scheme. And the solace she's always found in her work evaporates like a departing soul when she suspects that some of the deceased she's dressed have been murdered. When Graham's plotting leads to his disappearance, Violet takes full control of the business and is commissioned for an undertaking of royal proportions. But she's certain there's a killer lurking in the London fog, and the next funeral may be her own. Equal parts courage, compassion, and intrigue, Christine Trent tells an unrestrained tale of love and loss in the rigidly decorous world of Victorian society. Praise for the novels of Christine Trent "Genuinely engrossing. . .with a rare Regency heroine who loves her work and does it well."

Great pillow
Size: Standard (Medium)
I love latex pillows. They are bouncy but yet soft. This is my second one. This one is the medium and my first soft. I use soft on top laying watching tv and sleep with medium. No neck pain at all. I have always loved these from years ago. Will always use these only.

Lost its firmness way too quick
Size: Standard (Medium)
I’ve used latex pillows almost my whole life & this has to be the worse one yet. These pillows usually last me years, I’ve only had this one about 4 months & it’s already gotten flat causing me neck pain. When I first got it I was skeptical since it was already very flat compared to what you get in store but I gave it a try anyway. I slept good for the first 2-3 months since the firmness was still there but now it’s not holding my neck up at all. On top of that the smell was stronger than usual and took about a month to go away. I’ve gotten cheaper latex pillows in store that have lasted me longer but I needed one fast so I decided to order this one.. Would not recommend.

EXCELLENT CHOICE
Size: Standard (High Loft), Number of Items: 1
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME ! I TRIED A MEDIUM SOFT PILLOW FROM ANOTHER COMPANY FOR $35 LESS, BUT IT COULDN'T STAND UP TO MY NEEDS OR EXPECTATIONS. THIS STANDARD SIZE PILLOW THAT IS "FIRM" AS OPPOSED TO SOFT OR MEDIUM, IS FANTASTIC FOR MY HEAD AND NECK. IT IS KEEPING MY CERVICAL SPINE ALIGNED WHILE I SLEEP AND RELIEVING THE HEADACHES THAT I HAVE BEEN HAVING DUE TO MY DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE IN MY NECK. GREAT PILLOW AND WELL WORTH THE EXTRA MONEY. THANK YOU !

Goldilocks Pillow!! Queen Medium
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1, Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
Phenomenal pillow. I'm sure most people will have that trial by error with latex pillows, But I can assure you this pillow is the perfect balance of soft yet supportive, I'm 6" 1" 185 and I find it to be extremely comfortable, I purchased a queen medium, and upon opening it does have a vanilla/latex like smell(Not overly strong , but will dissipate in a few days if aired out, Ill mention this because im sure most people assume medium is hard, This isn't the case at all with this pillow, Its soft and supportive, I cant explain it any better than , It really is a Goldilocks pillow, Not to soft or firm but just right for my noggin. I'll also add my girlfriend liked it so much when she used it the second night, That I doubt I'll getting it back now,. All and all it's a great pillow and worth the money, Here's to many great night's with this Kiss Dream Queen Medium Latex Pillow!

Bouncy and cool
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
I had been searching for a new pillow for weeks, but nothing was calling to me. So many go flat far too fast, and most cooling pillows are lumpy as can be. This one is perfect. Doesn't go flat, gives me comfortable support, and actually keeps cool longer than the average pillow
