History professor Henry Willows is in love-in love with Catherine Eddowes, the fourth victim of Jack the Ripper. Although over a century distant, Henry's obsession knows no bounds. With the aid of an ingenious physicist, Henry achieves his raison d'etre: a means to travel back in time, stop the world's most infamous serial killer, and save the woman he loves. But the fabric of time isn't easy to change . . . and the Ripper has plans of his own.

A very engrossing book! Had a slow start, but once I got to maybe page 70 or 100 I stayed up late in bed reading three nights in a row. Couldn't put it down! Really original way to do time travel and it felt believable. Really good detail on 1880s, too - very rich.

There were some things I wasn't a fan of, but it was nitpicking character details.

I recommended my local small bookstore carry this book! :)
