Sinopsis

One Year Before Whitechapel – The Final Testament.

1887
A woman's body is pulled from the Thames. Only one year before the infamous murders of 1888, London is about to awaken to the most dangerous serial killer the world has ever known.
Elsbeth Hargreaves and Inspector Abberline race across the East End, through the narrow foggy alleyways of Whitechapel, where danger and violence lurk around every corner. Evil walks the streets, and out of the shadows, an insane killer waits—silent, unseen, ready to strike.

The Black Lodge
The Ripper, hidden and protected, has been initiated as an Entered Apprentice by a Masonic temple known as The Black Lodge. A deeply corrupt and treacherous society made up of London's most powerful and privileged. Run by the sadistic Worshipful Master, Silas Dydko, the Lodge allows its members to indulge their darkest desires without consequence. He is aided by the Reverend Slythe, a man with dark and disturbing secrets of his own, and the Senior Warden, Augustus Wolf.

The Hunt
From a damp, cold morgue to a dark crypt in the bowels of a depraved and immoral church, through the terrifying acts of the visiting Circus Noir, Abberline and Elsbeth must infiltrate The Black Lodge to end the monster's reign of terror. Everything and everyone they hold dear is in grave danger. There can be no mistakes. No second chances. This time, it's life or death.

In this fast-paced conclusion to the trilogy, hold on tight for a ride of thrilling twists and turns as the day of judgement—and the final testament—draws near.
Dark Gothic Crime at Its Best.
