Bestselling author
'One of the finest performances of Anne Perry's career. A mesmerising and suspenseful tale, rich in period detail, rife with articulate and believable characters.'
Publishers Weekly
It is 1892 and the grisly killings of Whitechapel prostitutes by a man dubbed Jack the Ripper remain a frightening enigma ...
When evidence presented in court by Thomas Pitt leads to the execution of a distinguished soldier and archaeologist, the retaliation from the hanged man's influential friends is swift. The murderer was a member of the Inner Circle, a group of men whose power extends further than Pitt realised was possible, and, within days, he loses command of the Bow Street police station. To protect him from the Inner Circle's hatred, he is forced to leave his family to work undercover in the dangerously volatile East End.
'A beauty, brilliantly presented, ingeniously developed and packed with political implications that reverberate on every level of British society ... Pitt delivers Perry's most harrowing insights into the secret lives of the elegant Victorians who have long enchanted and repelled her.'
The New York Times Book Review
'An Anne Perry novel is a delight to read as much for its Victorian-era details as for the mystery it unfolds.'
Chicago Tribune
'Perry has the great gift of making it all seem immediate and very much alive.'
The Philadelphia Inquirer
