My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Michael Holmes is a respected DSI at Scotland Yard who has a little bit of celebrity due to his name and ability to solve crimes. Professor Rachel Moriarty was the subject of gossip five years ago when she lost her tenured professorship and so now is in London concentrating on building an exclusive tour business. Michael is intrigued by the woman who bears the last name of his literary rival. The veil between the worlds is weakening and something is trying to come through - it has found the key to unlocking the door and intends to use Rachel's innocence to re-enter this world. Can Holmes and Moriarty work together to finally put an end to the evil that was Jack the Ripper?
I have to say up front that my first thought was that anything with characters with the names Holmes and Moriarty was going to be corny and painful to read. Thankfully I was wrong and I loved the story from the paranormal nature of Holmes to the paranormal nature of the emergence of Jack the Ripper to the way that Holmes was a Dom who expected certain behaviour from Moriarty. There was enough drama and danger around the Jack the Ripper emergence as well as the more minor developing relationship between Holmes and Moriarty. Easy to read and understand, this story contained mature contents of a BDSM-like nature.
