London, 1890. Blood and death are Fiona Mahoney’s trade, and business, as they say, is booming.

Dying is the only thing people do with any regularity, and Fiona makes her indecorous living cleaning up after the corpses are carted away. Her childhood best friend, Mary, was the last known victim of Jack the Ripper. It’s been two years since Fiona scrubbed Mary’s blood from the floorboards, and London is no longer buzzing about the Ripper, but Fiona hasn’t forgotten.

And she hasn’t stopped searching for Jack.

When she’s called to a murder in the middle of the night, Fiona finds a victim mutilated in an eerily similar fashion to those of the Ripper, and only a few doors down from Mary’s old home. The relentless, overbearing, and irritatingly handsome Inspector Grayson Croft warns her away from the case. She might have listened, if she hadn’t found a clue in the blood. A clue that will lead her down a path from which there is no return.As a killer cuts a devastating swath through London, a letter written in blood arrives at her door, and it is only then that Fiona realizes just how perilous her endeavor is. For she has drawn the attention of an obsessive evil, and is no longer the hunter, but the prey. Fiona Mahoney is in the business of blood.

But she’s not the only one...

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This is an amazing suspense thriller, I had trouble finding a place to put the book down, events in the story kept me turning pages, suspicions built towards one character kept me guessing in a possible red herring way. All characters are fleshed out.The storytelling makes them human, had me liking them and suspicious of them at the same time, seeing them as Fiona views them. All of them revealed and woven through the plot solving the raw murders terrorizing London. Danger towards characters had me holding my breath, events going on around them and reactions from characters toyed with emotions and at times amused. The murders and lives Fiona is tangled with keep a vibe of a dark sinister London surrounding you, chills and edge of your seat reading awaits.
