Overview

She has watched empires rise and fall for forty centuries. In the yellow fog of Victorian London she has finally found a monster worth hunting. Finn Parker is no ordinary lady of Mayfair. Frozen in time since 2600 BC, her blood still burns with an ancient internal energy the modern world has forgotten. She has seen civilizations collapse and humanity repeat the same brutal patterns again and again, but 1888 feels different. In the soot-choked alleys of Whitechapel, Jack the Ripper is carving a trail of terror that has the whole city paralyzed and the police completely helpless. Posing as a wealthy painter, Finn leaves her safe world of privilege and steps into the dark heart of the East End. She teams up with a driven journalist and a brave young companion. Using the lost skills of a dead world, impossible lightness on the rooftops and the cold wisdom of forty lifetimes, she sets out to track a predator who thinks he owns the night. As the victims mount with surgical precision, Finn discovers the Ripper's secrets reach far beyond the knife. In a city gripped by fear, the most dangerous hunter is not the man in the shadows. It is the woman who has seen it all before. A gripping dark historical crime mystery and thriller, perfect for fans of The Alienist and supernatural Victorian thrillers.
