Cyrus Barker is undoubtedly England's premiere private
enquiry agent. With the help of his assistant Thomas
Llewelyn, he's developed an enviable reputation for
discreetly solving some of the toughest, most consequential
cases in recent history. But one evening in 1888, Robert
Anderson, the head of Scotland Yard's Criminal Investigation
Department (CID), appears at Barker's office with an offer.
A series of murders in the Whitechapel area of London are
turning the city upside down, with tremendous pressure being
brought to bear on Scotland Yard and the government itself.
Barker is to be named temporary envoy to the Royal Family
with regard to the case while surreptitiously bringing his
investigative skill to the case. With various elements of
society, high and low, bringing their own agenda to
increasingly shocking murders, Barker and Llewellyn must
find and hunt down the century's most notorious killer. The
Whitechapel Killer has managed to elude the finest minds of
Scotland Yard—and beyond—he's never faced a mind as nimble
and a man as skilled as Cyrus Barker. But even Barker's
prodigious skills may not be enough to track down a killer
in time.
