With the events among the Etruria concluded, Audrey Rose and Thomas find themselves neck deep in another murder, this one more brutalized than the last. Coming to the conclusion that they have been on the trail of this serial killer from the very beginning, shocking truths are discovered about the true identity of Jack the Ripper, who now may call himself the Devil as he prowls the streets of America.
I love Audrey and Thomas together, and I am very happy that they had a chance to get to their own happy ending after the events of Chicago. Even though there was a lot more speculation about the identity of the Ripper, I was shocked when the truth was revealed to me. I wasn't able to put the book down for the conclusion of events, completely and entirely absorbed by the bloodbath that practically ensued.
This was such a wonderful conclusion to the series, and even though I am sad that it is over, I still want to know more! I would love to read a short novella of Audrey and Thomas's adventures in the future! Despite feeling like the conclusion of their love story being placed on the backburner for this read, it was very well done, with the perfect amount of intrigue, murder, speculation, and romantic tension. I loved the development of Audrey Rose in this plotline. She really has come a long way since the beginning in regards to embracing her own inner darkness. <3

“Trust me, I don’t want to be selfless. Not with you. But I’ll always stand aside so you have the space to make your own choices.”
And murder, mystery and romance indeed! Slow burn but oh so very worth it.
A beautiful end full of torment and pain and love. All the things I long for in my reading ❤️
