Stalking Jack the ripper by Kerri Maniscalco


 Audrey Rose Wadsworth is in her Uncle Jonathan's laboratory helping him work on a dead body. This is the one thing she wants to do the most. But, her father isn't quite happy about it. She is to join her uncle's class today to hear what is being discussed. First she needs to go home. She didn't want to face her father but, she knew she had her brother to back her. Nathaniel always helped her out. What she didn't know was that her father was still greiving concerning her mother's death. 

In her uncle's class she sees Thomas Cresswell showing off. He's seems to notice her from the front of the class where he's explaining a few things that her uncle was presenting. By the end of class he comes over to speak with her. He acts like he knows more then she does. They don't really get along at first. She gets up and leaves to head back to her uncle's Lab. 

Earlier in the day, the newspaper had said there was a murder of a women in Whitechaple. Her uncle and her are going to examine the body. What she doesn't know is that Thomas is bringing some stuff to her uncle's as will. That's when things become weird for her. At first she doesn't like him at all. She is ready to do what she's been doing with her uncle for some time tell, he takes over doing her job. 

The newspaper has been calling the killer leather apron. But, his true name is Jack the ripper after they get a few letters signed by him. At first they start to think that her uncle is the killer. They even put him inside an asylum. That's when she meets the Superintendent Blackburn. She doesn't know what he's wanting of her. He tries to help her. Then, she finds out that her father is willing to let Blackburn court her for marriage. 

That doesn't go over very will. Next, her father is taking something that is a drug for sometime now. He was caught on the east side and told to go out to the cabin to deal with it. He left Nathaniel in charge. 

Her and Thomas have been trying to figure out the murders. It seemed that each one is getting worse. Plus, they are all whores. She knows that finding the killer is going to be dangerous. 

If I say anything more, I'll blow how it ends. I'll just say, if you haven't read the book. You might want too. It will surprise you. It all comes into view as the killer comes into view. 

Well, I'm off to start another book. Remember to pick up a good book. You never know what you might just enjoy.
