This #1 New York Times bestseller and deliciously creepy horror novel has a storyline inspired by the Ripper murders and an unexpected, blood-chilling conclusion.
Seventeen-year-old Audrey Rose Wadsworth was born a lord's daughter, with a life of wealth and privilege stretched out before her. But between the social teas and silk dress fittings, she leads a forbidden secret life. Against her stern father's wishes and society's expectations, Audrey often slips away to her uncle's laboratory to study the gruesome practice of forensic medicine.
When her work on a string of savagely killed corpses drags Audrey into the investigation of a serial murderer, her search for answers brings her back to her own sheltered world. The story's shocking twists and turns, augmented with real, sinister period photos, will make this dazzling, #1 New York Times bestselling debut from author Kerri Maniscalco impossible to forget.

3.5 Enjoyable semi-compelling mystery with some true goriness in the mix. Not a lot of character development or motive outside of pretty and Victorian (for both Audrey Rose and Thomas, they were equally written in broad strokes) and some parts dragged a bit but overall pretty fun to listen to. Not the fault of this book, but very similar to Madman's Daughter, which is also on BOB list - I guess making for really hard-to-distinguish questions!
I...could not get into this one. Thomas is a gem but the MC was so frustrating and I solved the mystery midway. Damn, you hate to see it.
