I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. This was a story about a dying woman who was courted by Death personified in the time of Jack the Ripper. 

It's a romance novel with a slight gothic bent and a mystery about who is Jack the Ripper. 

It's well written and didn't get bogged down. I enjoyed it, would consider reading more by this author.
