Whitechapel, 1888: London is bowed under Jack the Ripper’s reign of terror.
London 2015: actress Julianne Bell is abducted in a case similar to the terrible Tower Hamlets
murders of some ten years earlier, and harking back to the Ripper killings of a century before.
Falkenberg, Sweden, 2015: a woman’s body is found mutilated in a forest, her wounds
identical to those of the Tower Hamlets victims. With the man arrested for the Tower Hamlets crimes already locked up, do the new killings mean he has a dangerous accomplice, or is a copy-cat serial killer on the loose? Profiler Emily Roy and true-crime writer Alexis Castells again find themselves drawn into an intriguing case, with personal links that turn their world upside down…

 I loved the previous book in this series, Block 46, and so was anticapating the release of Keeper. Naturally I was eager to join the blog tour when the email arrived! Keeper takes place over two different centuries (1800s and 2000s) which can be considered confusing for some people but works well in this book.

There were times that I was so shocked by what I was reading that I had to come back to reading about an hour later and I believe this is the type of impact that makes a book like this become one that you HAVE to continue reading it.

Keeper is well written, twisted and gruesome!
