A CAPTIVATING HISTORICAL MURDER MYSTERY SET IN VICTORIAN ENGLAND

Jack the Ripper is terrifying London. Outside the capital, another killer will shock the country. It’s up to Police Inspector Samuel Ravenscroft to stop him.

Worcester, 1888.
Nicholas Evelyn, the elderly cathedral librarian, has disappeared. A priceless medieval manuscript has been stolen. Its glass case smashed with a candlestick.

Ravenscroft is sent from the grimy streets of Whitechapel to investigate.

MURDER IN THE CATHEDRAL

Aided by his trusty companion Constable Tom Crabb, Ravenscroft soon discovers that behind the cathedral’s facade lurks a dark world of death and deceit.

Could the murder relate to an unsolved mystery dating back nearly forty years?

Meanwhile, in London, a mysterious woman in black is wreaking revenge in the dark alleyways of Whitechapel.

In a spectacular climax, the two worlds of Worcester and Whitechapel meet.

Perfect for fans of M.R.C. Kasasian, E.S. Thomson, Oscar De Muriel or Karen Charlton

MEET THE DETECTIVE
Inspector Samuel Ravenscroft, unmarried and over forty, is a detective in the Whitechapel branch of the Metropolitan Police. Painfully asthmatic, he is often overlooked by his superiors in favour of his pushier colleagues. But Ravenscroft is keen to prove himself and strives to overcome his physical limitations. His tools are forthright questioning, close examination of the evidence and personal intuition. The solution to many crimes is buried deep in the past.

With his trusty Bradshaw, Ravenscroft and his colleague Constable Tom Crabb, travel around the Three Counties, overlooked by the Malvern Hills, bringing criminals to justice.

KERRY TOMBS was born near Birmingham, but grew up in various locations in north Worcestershire. After a career teaching in both England and Australia, he moved to Malvern in 1982, where he became a local genealogist, lecturer and bookseller.
