A miser's death. The Ripper's shadow. The hunt begins.
When a miserly recluse meets a lonely end, Harpham uncovers clues that lead him to the unsolved mystery surrounding Edmund Gurney's death years earlier. Meanwhile, Violet grapples with a series of strange disturbances at a Suffolk rectory, where whispers of witchcraft and ancient curses abound.
With time running out and the body count rising, Harpham and Violet must navigate a labyrinth of secrets and deception to unmask the killer before more lives are lost.
A masterful blend of historical intrigue and witchcraft, this atmospheric thriller will captivate fans of Karen Charlton and Anne Perry.
