Rory Deveaux has the opportunity to spend her senior year at a boarding school in London. This a long way from her quirky life in Louisiana.The day she arrives in London, a murder identical to the first Jack the Ripper crime has occurred. As the gruesome crimes continue to arise, Londoners become consumed with “Rippermania.” Rory is the only person who sees the suspect even though her friend was with her when she spoke to him...it’s strange, but so is the special police unit that has taken over the case.
This book is excellent. Rory is a lovable, funny, and well-developed main character. The secondary characters are strong and likeable The story is fast-paced and full of mystery and romance. I am very excited that the story didn’t end with this book. It looks like it is the first book in a series titled, Shades of London. And, isn’t London, with its long history, the perfect place for a good ghost story?
