Dawn Of The Ripper - Paperback

by Matt Ross (Author)

A serial killer is loose on the streets of Victorian Brighton.

When two women are found brutally murdered, their deaths are so horrifying that fear and panic grip the entire town. It is only a matter of time before the killer strikes again- and only two people stand in his way.

Elsbeth, a renowned spiritualist who speaks with the dead, and Inspector Abberline, an evidence-driven detective, must work together to find Brighton's most elusive killer. Aided by a corrupt mortician, the pair know that should they fail, their adversary's murderous reign will continue unchecked.

Through winding, narrow streets of the North Laine, into Brighton's network of underground sewers, and The Dead House, Elsbeth and Abberline must put aside their differences to track down the psychotic maniac terrorising Brighton. In this gripping, fast-paced thriller, discover the untold early crimes of Jack the Ripper. Years before the horrors of Whitechapel, his terrifying rule begins. Buried evidence and police corruption pave the way for an infamous legend to be born.

The year is 1883. The Ripper begins his dark, twisted journey towards destiny.
