while the book was very thrilling and I enjoyed it, I feel like a lot of aspects were woven in and then just forgotten about/never explained fully? idk whether that will be picked up on in following books though.

I don't think it needed the lovestory, really, but I guess it can't be avoided

Despite how tricky the premise is, it is much more respectful than you think it would be. The romance is a bit trite, but it does become quite sweet over time.

Interesting adaptation about one of the most famous Serial Killers of all time with a strong female protagonist. What I liked most were the autopsies. I also liked the dialogues full of banter between Audrey Rose and Thomas. At times the story was a bit slow, but it still made me guess along with the protagonists. Unfortunately it was quite obvious who Jack the Ripper was very early on. All in all it was an interesting story and I’m looking forward to read the next book in the series.
