Historical | Suspense
In eighteenth-century London, a killer walks the teeming
streets. His victims are always young prostitutes with red
hair. Before they die, they hear whispers that speak of
stars. Of a woman named Selene. Then they feel the cord
around their necks... While the Revolution rages across the Channel, Jonathan
Absey, working for England's Home Office, tracks down
foreign spies in the war against France. But he is
obsessed with the recent killings of prostitutes, all of
whom resemble his lost daughter, who met her end in the
shadowy alleys of London. The redemption he craves won't
be found in the politics of war. The answers he seeks
won't be on the city streets. Danger and intrigue will compel him to look elsewhere, for
it is where he least expects it that a secret is hiding...
