Synopsis
Winifred Rudge, a bemused writer struggling to get beyond the runaway success of her mass-market astrology book, travels to London to jump-start her new novel about a woman who is being haunted by the ghost of Jack the Ripper. Upon her arrival, she finds that her stepcousin and old friend John Comestor has disappeared, and a ghostly presence seems to have taken over his home. Is the spirit Winnie's great-great-grandfather, who, family legend claims, was Charles Dickens's childhood inspiration for Ebenezer Scrooge Could it be the ghostly remains of Jack the Ripper Or a phantasm derived from a more arcane and insidious origin Winnie begins to investigate and finds herself the unwilling audience for a drama of specters and shades-some from her family's peculiar history and some from her own unvanquished past.
