Summer, 1840. Edgar Allan Poe arrives in London to meet his friend C. Auguste Dupin, in the hope that the great detective will help him solve a family mystery.
For Poe has inherited a mahogany box containing sheathes of letters that implicate his grandparents in some of London’s most heinous & scandalous crimes – those committed by the so-called London Monster who, for two years, terrorized the city’s streets, stalking attractive, well-to-do young women, slicing their clothing & their derrières.
But as they delve deeper into the city’s secrets, & past horrors emerge, they start to suspect that they too are being watched & preyed upon.
And if they are, might their stalkers be connected to the London Monster?
