London’s East End, 1888. When darkness falls, terror begins …
The foggy streets of London’s Whitechapel district have become a nocturnal hunting ground for Jack the Ripper, and flower seller Constance Piper struggles to survive in a place where every woman fears the night. When a high-born stranger begs for her help in uncovering the truth behind a brutal murder, Constance becomes entangled in a dangerous search that leads far beyond the headlines.
As public hysteria mounts and the killings continue, Constance follows a trail that leads beyond the accepted Ripper narrative and finds herself guided by a curious ally. Is this helper a guardian … or something far more dangerous?
With the police chasing shadows and powerful figures desperately trying to bury the truth, Constance must decide whom she can trust. Because in Whitechapel, the greatest danger may not be the killer everyone fears–but the one no one sees coming.
Treading in the footsteps of Kate Mosse and Eve Chase, this historical mystery novel is perfect for readers who enjoy solving thrilling murder cases alongside complex and relatable female sleuths.
