drourick 's review for:

Ripper by Isabel Allende
2.75
dark mysterious slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Pacing was a but slow. There is a good, diverse cast of characters, but some rely too heavily on stereotypes. 

The ultimate reveal of the murder isn't all that satisfying.
The book tries to do too much with the character of the killer being one person with 4 identities. We don't really get a good reason as to why Keller was killled.
