WHITE CHAPELL SCARLET TRACINGS brings together an impressively predatory and seedy group of contemporary antiquarian book-dealers and an investigation of the 19th century Jack the Ripper murders. The London East End and Bare East Anglian locations generate a bizzare and realistic atmosphere for the rush of events - dark Dickensian alleys and occult churches, hospitals of victims and crazed doctors, panicking aristocrats in their backstreet sexual encounters, and the isolation of grim marshlands and ruined boats.
