I absolutely loved this book. I'm a big fan of historical fiction and mysteries and this is a gem. I learned so much about London in the early 1800s.
Kirkus Reviews says: "A spellbinding mystery replete with authentic historical minutiae and a brooding, teeming early 19th century locale." Time repots, ' Vivid in atmosphere and detail."' The notorious crime that shocked London, "the Radcliffe Highway Murdrs of 1811, that were later compare to the Jack the Ripper killings: "the very symbol of murderous and unthinking brutality."
Interesting look at actual multiple murder case in the early 19th century. Author closes with his own take on what happened.
