This series is like time traveling to Victorian England. The Character development and back stories add tremendous depth. The mystery is well written and layered.

Lost a star because Ripper Deception because I felt deceived by the Jack the Ripper’s storyline. Not a spoiler because Jack was never caught and theories and conspiracies abound. That somehow in the classism of Victorian England any man of “breeding” should be “protected” from justice at the expense of his impoverished victims.

I’m still going to read book 3–because 4 stars is a good book and I look forward to seeing where these characters journey take them.

Not for Ripperologists but Excellent HistFic
