Stalking Jack the Ripper (Stalking Jack the Ripper, #1)

by Kerri Maniscalco

This #1 New York Times bestseller and deliciously creepy horror novel has a storyline inspired by the Ripper murders and an unexpected, blood-chilling conclusion.

Seventeen-year-old Audrey Rose Wadsworth was born a lord's daughter, with a life of wealth and privilege stretched out before her. But between the social teas and silk dress fittings, she leads a forbidden secret life. Against her stern father's wishes and society's expectations, Audrey often slips away to her uncle's laboratory to study the gruesome practice of forensic medicine.

When her work on a string of savagely killed corpses drags Audrey into the investigation of a serial murderer, her search for answers brings her close to her own sheltered world. The story's shocking twists and turns, augmented with real, sinister period photos, will make this dazzling, #1 New York Times bestselling debut from author Kerri Maniscalco impossible to forget.

This book was really good, except for the ultimate plot twist in the end. Unfortunately, it was something that was too obvious from the start. I liked how Kerri Maniscalco made sure that everyone was questioned, everything was thought of, instead of having yet another dumb main YA character as we have in so many books. I am curious how the story progresses.
