Tessa Harris knocks it out of the park with the second book in the Constance Piper Mystery series, THE ANGEL MAKERS, a story that takes place in London during December 1888. Times are desperate especially for single women with children. Mother Delaney is known as the baby farmer and helps to place these children into good homes. Terror lurks the streets when the sun goes down and evil might be around the next turn. No one knows if it is Jack the Ripper or someone with a vengeance. Can the city be safe again? What will it take to end all the murders?

Harris writes a nail-biting story that is full of suspense and mystery making you eager to turn the next page but scared enough to question what happens next! THE ANGEL MAKERS is the second book in the series, but can easily be read as a stand-alone novel.

SUMMARY

In November 1888, the specter of Jack the Ripper instills fear in every woman who makes her living on the streets of London. But there are other monsters at large, those who shun fame and secretly claim their victims from among the cityโ€™s most vulnerable . . . Options are few for unmarried mothers in Victorian England. To avoid stigma, many find lodging with โ€œbaby farmersโ€โ€”women who agree to care for the infant, or find an adoptive family, in exchange for a fee. Constance Piper, a flower seller gifted with clairvoyance, has become aware of one such baby farmer, Mother Delaney, who promises to help desperate young mothers and place their babies in loving homes. She suspects the truth is infinitely darker. Guided by the spirit of her late friend, Emily Tindall, Constance gathers evidence about what really goes on behind the walls of Mother Delaneyโ€™s Poplar house. Itโ€™s not only innocent children who are at risk. A young prostituteโ€™s body is found in mysterious circumstances. With the aid of Detective Constable Hawkins, newly promoted thanks to Constanceโ€™s help with his last case, Constance links the death to Mother Delaneyโ€™s vile trade. But the horror is edging closer to home, and even the hangmanโ€™s noose may not be enough to put this evil to rest . . .
