This is a wonderful book. It takes off from the first page and grips you til the last. Jack the Ripper's recent actions have turned the London populace against the police and Scotland Yard. When one of their own turns up murdered, it's up to newcomer Det. Day to find his killer. The addition of several characters who are real historical figures during the time is great, and I loved the new discoveries in forensics that are just coming to light.
Grecian's gritty and realistic feel for London is amazing. You feel right there with the characters and places and feelings of the time period.
I sincerely hope this is the first in a series, because the characters were terrific, I cared what happened to them, and this author could go far with the story he's created.
