A TERROR BORN OF JACK THE RIPPER
The details of the crime scene are no coincidence. The body—a promising starlet—has been battered, bloodied and then discarded between two of Manhattan’s oldest graveyards. One look and Detective Jude Crosby recognizes the tableau: a re-creation of Jack the Ripper’s gruesome work. But he also sees something beyond the actions of a mere copycat. Something more dangerous…and unexplainable.
As the city seethes with suspicion, Jude calls on Whitney Tremont, a member of the country’s preeminent paranormal investigating team, to put the speculation to rest.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Graham's third book in the Krewe of Hunters series, a beautiful young woman is brutally killed in the style of Jack the Ripper, and New York City police detec- tive Jude Crosby quickly recruits a para- normal investigator to help her uncover the truth about the mysterious slaying. Narrating with a consistently flat tone, Luke Daniels delivers a lackluster perfor- mance that fails to capture the sense of ur- gency and menace that abounds in this chilling and dark tale of murder and ro- mance. He also fails to bring any flair to the voices he creates for Graham's well- developed characters. Listeners will be disappointed by Daniels's reading and their resultant inability to get lost in this first-rate thriller. A Mira paperback.
