Over a century after Jack, a new Ripper is on the loose.

Della and Mason know it's only a matter of time before their investigation emboldens this new Ripper, forcing the agents to work quickly before another woman winds up dead. But now that the heat is on, their game of cat and mouse takes an unexpected turn, leading Della and Mason into a deadly trap they never saw coming…

Women have been murdered in London, their deaths mimicking Jack The Rippers killings. FBI agents Carter and Hamilton are assisting the London police. They are determined to stop the killings. There is suspense and a mystery in the book. The investigation takes them down many roads. The killer is a master of disguise and seems to disappear into thin air. This is the 2nd book in a series but it could be read as a stand alone. Thank you to net galley for an advanced readers copy.

Heather Graham needs to get new proofreaders. I don't mind an occasional mistake, but this book had way too many. The last one of the horseman also had many mistakes. I'm a big fan of the Krewe series, but this book was not on par with the others. There was so much filler and repetitive language. Hope the next one is better.

I really like this author and this trilogy is great so far. My only complaint is that character Patrick Law is misidentified as Phillip Law throughout this book. Whoever is editing these books probably needs to be as invested in the characters as the fans are.

Picking up from book one the Blackbird team is back and focusing in London for a trainee of the killer from the last book, but on who sees himself as the Ripper with more power. The team continues to grow and build relationships as a team and in two of their cases a couple. The focus on history was good and expected for a Krewe-esq book. I find the international component and nod to the different laws intriguing and was thrilled when one of the team shared they also see ghosts. While the USA Krewe was referenced through Jackson, Angela and of course the benefactor Adam, no other Krewe members made an appearance. The focus was on the international liaisons and how the could potentially make a full time team. There were two bad guys again which was an additional element that built the team and history as we followed their steps to finding the villains. Of course ghosts were helpful and played a role in saving a life or more! It was an enjoyable read and I am really liking this new team and approach!
