In the gaslit hell of Whitechapel, a sickness is spreading. But this is not one man's madness. It is a procedure. A secret Order of London's most powerful men-surgeons, nobles, and watchers linked to the Crown-has begun to "cleanse" the city's diseased veins . The murders are not crimes; they are excisions. Three souls are caught in the conspiracy: The Witness: After surviving an attack, Liz Stride refuses to be a victim.
She hunts the men who hunt her, her secret journal the only true record of the conspiracy . The Investigator: Inspector Frederick Abberline follows a trail of surgical precision , only to find himself blocked by a wall of official silence and the powerful Sir William Gull . The Initiate: Dr. Alexander Strathmore, a brilliant but broken surgeon, is seduced by the Order. But when he is forced to commit an unspeakable "procedure" , his guilt sets him on a collision course with his masters . As their worlds collide, a hunted witness, a disgraced doctor, and a lone inspector must unite to expose the rot at the city's core.
They are armed only with a secret journal , a packet of stolen ledgers , and damning proof that links the murders all the way to the Crown. In a city that protects its masters, the only thing more dangerous than the Ripper... is the truth.
