A review by novella91
Dust and Shadow: An Account of the Ripper Killings by Dr. John H. Watson by Lyndsay Faye
5.0
Being an avid fan of all things Sherlock Holmes amd having a fascination with Jack the Ripper and the mystery surrounding who he was, I found this book intriguing and drove right in.
And the book did not disappoint! The author has done a wonderful job of capturing the essence that is Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson and stays very much true to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's style of portraying these wonderful characters. Throw Jack the ripper into the mix and you have an amazing adventure to embark on. I would highly recommend this book to any Sherlock Holmes or any murder mystery fan out there!
