Great Book!

What an exciting and riveting book this is. Very detailed from beginning to end. I recommend this book highly. All it took was a shawl! The author has you hooked to this book from beginning to end with all the details of the grisly murders in White Chapel and then his research with a shawl that was taken from a murder scene. It is quite a story. I read it in a day and a half. Quite the page turner.
