Quee Victoria is pushing them to solve the case. Lady Sarah, a disgraced arisstocrat who runs a boarding house, takes up the quest as her own misfortunes weigh on her. Along with her brother, other aristocrats and the prostitutes who rent from her, Sarah doggedly follows the trail at her own personal peril. As the murders grow even more grisly, Lady Sarah's chase takes a number of twists and turns, like the streets of Whitechapel itself.

Review

"Absolutely gripping from the very first sentence! The autor's expert and in-depth knowledge of the Jack the Ripper mystery in 1888 plays second fiddle onloly to her gift of imagination and story-telling. It is a wonderful weaving of historial accuracy and adventure. Masterful and engrossing!"
