What if everything you knew about Jack the Ripper was false?

Medicine is all Clara Thompson knows. It’s real. It’s tangible. A straightforward science. So when she is cornered by vampires one fateful evening in Whitechapel, England, her entire world is thrown off balance when she learns of the existence of creatures in the night. And what throws her off balance even more is the ghoul who saves her, a beast she should fear, but she can’t help but be enamored by.

Jack the Ripper.

When she is recruited by a monster hunter named Claude La Cour to solve the mysterious case of the Ripper and to stop the deaths occurring in the city, she is thrown into the twists and turns of loyalty, love, and an impossible choice. To betray the Ripper? Or give into what her heart desires the most?

But both Claude and the Ripper keep dangerous secrets, ones that could destroy the life she has created for herself and her sisters. When a more sinister evil is at work, can she trust the Ripper to keep her safe? Or will she betray the one she cares for the most to protect her sisters from harm?

Monsters have always existed. They walk amongst us or live in the shadows. Hungering. Craving. Looking for love. Are you ready to meet these swoon-worthy specters and creatures of the night? It’s time for monsters…
