Kenneth Cameron

An American author in Victorian London investigates the rumored reemergence of Jack the Ripper in this historical mystery series debut.

London, 1900. In the dying days of the old queen’s reign, the city is filled with imperial ambition, scientific revolution, and the shrill blast of factory whistles. For an American named Denton, it’s the perfect place to disappear. A former frontier sheriff turned novelist, all he wants is to escape his own memories. But now he must face another dark specter from the past.

 Jack the Ripper hasn’t been heard of for more than fifteen years. But at least one ferrety little fellow claims to have seen him at his grisly work. And when a prostitute turns up dead, Denton can’t shake the notion that the frightened man may have something to be frightened about. Nor can he shake his old instinct to see justice done.

Denton

The Frightened Man

A puzzling note from a troubled woman draws an American expat author into the lawless precincts of Victorian London in this historical mystery.

London, 1901. Denton, the notorious American writer, has returned to his adoptive home after several months in one of the less-delightful corners of the Continent. He’s greeted by the usual letters from fans craving more tales of adventure—and one peculiar note: “I believe that someone threatens to harm me, and I do not know quite what to do. ” Though it is signed “Mary Thomason, ” it was sent by someone else. And it is more than two months old.

Much as he’d like to deny it, Denton is a Victorian gentlemen to the marrow. And he cannot deny a damsel in distress. His search for the mysterious Miss Thomason will take him deep into London’s “bohemian” quarters—as well as the darker corners of his own soul.

“Other authors have set mysteries in the same period and place, but Cameron stands out by virtue of his fine plotting and distinctive characters. ” —Publishers Weekly
