A dying heiress.
The haunting threat of looming madness.
And a Ripper stalking the London streets.

Whomever dares to marry Isabel Vanderton will be rich, that much is clear. The problem is, Isabel isn’t interested in marrying. She isn’t really interested in dying either, but Death is impatient.

He has haunted Isabel for years—her most persistent suitor—and now, he is bent on claiming what is rightfully his. Determined, Death sets out on a careful game of seduction that threatens Isabel’s very sanity. She will succumb to him, or she will suffer the consequences.

She was never supposed to be in London…

No one is to go into the Wood alone.

Felicity Devonshire is about to break them both.

Jack, be nimble. Jack, be quick.
