Interesting adaptation about one of the most famous Serial Killers of all time with a strong female protagonist. What I liked most were the autopsies. I also liked the dialogues full of banter between Audrey Rose and Thomas. At times the story was a bit slow, but it still made me guess along with the protagonists. Unfortunately it was quite obvious who Jack the Ripper was very early on. All in all it was an interesting story and I’m looking forward to read the next book in the series.

First, a rant about the mc and then I’ll tell y’all how great this book is. I think she was insufferable at times. I’m not sure if this was the authors intention or not, but I found myself hating her point of view a couple times in the story. I am completely all for powerful women, but Audrey seemed to consider herself smarter and morally higher than everyone else in the story. Maybe pride is intentionally her main flaw, but I couldn’t stand it most of the time. She often ignored the adults in her life in the name of feminism to do absolutely stupid things because she believes herself, a 17 year old teen, above death and injury. This does get better as the series moves forward though. I did enjoy the plot and will be reading the next in the series. The characters were worth rooting for for the most part, and I didn’t see most of the main twists coming.

Extra warning- take’s God’s name in vain and looks down on religion. Makes sense in the context of the book but I think people should know what they are getting into if it goes against their religious beliefs.
