The Ripper's Apprentice, Paperback / softback Book

The Ripper's Apprentice Paperback / softback

Part of the Inspector Swain series

Paperback / softback

Description

In the slum alleys of Lambeth in 1891 a sinister silk-hatted figure lurks in the shadows - but trade is there for the taking and a girl must make a living.

Now, one after another, the girls who work the Waterloo Road wake in the morning to feel the slow agony of the most vicious of poisons ...victims of the man called Fred.

The police have only a string of 'catch me if you can' letters to taunt them, whilea whole mailing list of Victorian worthies find demands for money with menaces in their mail.

Inspector Swain investigates ...'Original story told in a highly individual manner' Times Literary Supplement
