Description
In 1782, London is the center of science and commerce, home to the newly rich and desperately poor. Giant, O'Brien is one of the latter. He has come to London to exhibit his size for money--and to die. His polar opposite is society doctor John Hunter who desperately wants Giant's corpse, which Giant refuses him for he wants to be properly buried and assume his throne in heaven. But money is a powerful motivator, and nobody knows that better than John Hunter, who lusts after the Giant's corpse as a medical curiosity, a boon to the advancement of scientific knowledge.
