Book description
Spitalfields, 1840.
Catherine Sorgeiul lives with her Uncle in a rambling house in
London's East End. When a murderer strikes, ripping open the chests of
young girls and stuffing hair into their mouths to resemble a beak,
Catherine is both horrified and fascinated.
As the murders continue to panic the city, however, she gradually
realizes she is snared in a deadly trap, where nothing is as it first
appears -- for lurking behind the lies Catherine has been told are
secrets more deadly and devastating than anything her imagination can conjure.
