The Severed Streets by Paul Cornell
401 Pages
This is the second book of a series where a investigative team who was exposed to the occult London continue to learn to use their new ability of second sight to investigate a series of murders that make it seem as if Jack the Ripper has come back from the grave and is killing rich white men.
While the story is interesting, I think since I hadn't read the first book, I lost some of the character building of the investigative team. As a result I found the group dynamics to be lacking in this book. Perhaps if I had the back story it would have been a better read.
