The brutal murder of a Shakespearean actress from the Globe Theatre in London kicks off a new search for Jack the Ripper. He’s back and it will take the Shakespearean scholar Dr Arden James and American student Charlie Leder to piece together the clues from Shakespeare’s plays and English cult lore as more bodies appear. The clues are as labyrinthine as the back streets of London. The men shrouded in robes and secrets seem to be helping but their assistance is as foggy as the Thames at twilight. Pursuit become desperation when it becomes clear that Arden herself is going to be the final victim. It’s a race through the streets and the tomes to finally solve the mystery of centuries.
