About the book
Private Enquiry Agent Cyrus Barker is taking on his most challenging case yet in Will Thomas's Anatomy of Evil. His task? To find and stop the infamous killer terrorizing Whitechapel: Jack the Ripper.
Cyrus Barker is known as England's top private enquiry agent, with a reputation for discreetly solving tough cases alongside his assistant Thomas Llewelyn. However, in 1888, a series of brutal murders in London's Whitechapel area has put immense pressure on Scotland Yard and the government.
Robert Anderson, head of Scotland Yard's CID, enlists Barker's help as a temporary envoy to the Royal Family in solving the case. With society's elite and commoners alike pushing their own agendas in the midst of the shocking murders, Barker and Llewellyn must track down the elusive Whitechapel Killer.
Despite the killer evading capture by Scotland Yard, Barker's investigative skills and expertise may just be the key to stopping a murderer who has thwarted the best minds of his time. Can Barker outwit Jack the Ripper before it's too late?
