The foggy streets of London's Whitechapel district have become a nocturnal hunting ground for Jack the Ripper, and no woman is safe. Constance Piper has been asked to use her talents as a clairvoyant to help a high-born lady of means find her missing sister, who she fears has been a victim of the Ripper. As Constance becomes embroiled in intrigue far more sinister than she could have imagined, assistance comes in a startling manner that profoundly challenges her assumptions about the nature of reality.
In November 1888, the specter of Jack the Ripper instills fear in every woman who makes her living on London’s streets. But there are other monsters at large, who shun fame and secretly claim their victims from among the city’s most vulnerable . . . Options are few for unmarried mothers in Victorian England. To avoid stigma, many find lodging with “baby farmers”—women who agree to care for the infant, or find an adoptive family, in exchange for a fee. Constance Piper, a London flower seller gifted with clairvoyance, has become aware of one such person, Mother Delaney, whose promises she suspects hide an infinitely darker truth. Guided by the spirit of a deceased friend, Constance gathers evidence about what really goes on within Mother Delaney’s Poplar House. It’s not only innocent children who are at risk. A young prostitute’s body is found in mysterious circumstances. With the aid of Detective Constable Hawkins, newly promoted thanks to Constance’s help, she links the death to Mother Delaney’s vile trade. But the horror is edging closer to home, and even the hangman’s noose may not put this evil to rest . . . “A nail-biting story full of suspense and mystery.” —Fresh Fiction
Victorian England. Clairvoyant flower seller Constance Piper receives supernatural aid from her late mentor-- and more grounded help from detective Thaddeus Hawkins-- as she uncovers links between murders in Whitechapel and a Fenian gang. Using violence to further their goal of an independent Ireland, the Fenians may be using the murders to make the British police look helpless. But the greatest evil may lie in an conspiracy that runs from Whitechapel to the highest office in the land. -- adapted from jacket
