About this title

Synopsis

Terror is stalking women on the streets of New York City in 1893, taking lives in a manner reminiscent of the Jack the Ripper murders in London five years earlier. Is it a copycat murderer or has the killer made his way to New York City? Simon Hawkes (the alias used by Sherlock Holmes in New York) finds clues on both sides of the Atlantic.

Review

A woman has been slain--a prostitute in a method most foul...the crime is similar to the series of prostitute slayings enacted by London's Jack the Ripper...Is Jack now in America...? I am giving this novel a rating of 4 pipes...enjoyable Sherlock Holmes pastiche. A nice plot with good deductions along the way--Sherlock Holmes Pastiches.com
