Über diesen Titel

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 agendas to increasingly shocking murders, Barker and Llewellyn must find and hunt down the century's most notorious killer.

Though 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.

"A satisfying addition to a satisfying series. Thomas continues to contribute to the historical thriller genre by combining appealing characters with thoroughly researched historical detail." ( Library Journal)

Cyrus Barker & Thomas Llewelyn tried their hand in working for and with Scotland Yard - the Yard was begrudgingly accepting the help.

I enjoyed their way of handling the hostility.
Barker & Llewelyn are a formidable team. Both men are highly intelligent and so different that they complement each other well.

The research done for this novel is commendable.

I like Antony Fergusons voice very much.

What a journey

Riveting instalment in this series, masterfully combining actual events of the period like the Whitechapel murders with own created content. Especially like how he deals with details of Catherine Eddowes death, ending with a contemplation of her missed life & not just the sensational gore. A poignant nod to the shawl DNA, nicely done whichever way the genetic dice ultimately fall.
