The year is 1977. The Yorkshire Ripper is on the loose murdering prostitutes in the Yorkshire city of Leeds. Two men-a journalist and cop-find their own lives turned over in the desperate race against time to stop the murders. Like his mentor James Ellroy, David Peace has fashioned out of the horror of true crime a work of terrible beauty.
"Set in a world in which black comes in many shades, this powerful, stark and strangely poetic series is turning into a considerable achievement."- Guardian The third novel in David Peace's acclaimed Red Riding Quartet sees Yorkshire terrorized by the Ripper while the corrupt police continue to prosper. Weaving his own extraordinary fiction around the terrible history of the time, David Peace has once again produced a thriller that goes above and beyond the limits of the genre.
