The Whitechapel Full Moon Society

Praise for The Whitechapel Full Moon Society

“Step into Jack the Ripper’s late 19th century London in Elizabeth DeLozier’s utterly immersive The Whitechapel Full Moon Society, a deeply atmospheric novel crackling with delicious tension and mystery. Caroline Foster arrives in London in search of her brother, and, finding him missing, takes a position as a maid in a colorful boarding house pulsing with secrets. The home’s previous maid was murdered by Jack the Ripper, who’s still on the loose, and as Caroline tries desperately to find her lost brother, it seems that the shadowy killer is drawing ever closer, along with a convergence of mysterious circumstances that threaten to ensnare Caroline. This thrillingly original look at the real-life murders of Jack the Ripper weaves together an imperiled heroine, a supernatural mystery, a simmering love story, and a heartwarming tale of finding one’s place in the world, all converging in one wonderfully unputdownable read.”
—Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Lost Names

“Elizabeth DeLozier’s sophomore novel is a howling good time. Orphaned Caroline Foster arrives in London broke and desperate, in search of the brother that is her only remaining family—but Charlie is missing and London is awash in terror of Jack the Ripper’s latest spree. Caroline’s only option is to take a job as a maid at the Whitechapel Full Moon Society where her brother was a member and an eclectic band of men hold monthly dinner parties on the full moon—parties that may just be connected to the Ripper’s string of murders. Lush, evocative, suspenseful—I read The Whitechapel Full Moon Society in one sitting.”
—Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Briar Club

“The Whitechapel Full Moon Society manages, like its own members, to be many things at once: it’s as propulsive as a thriller, as dreamy as a poem, as seductive as a beckoning finger. It’s dark alleys, dried blood, rustling silk, and bittersweet letters from lost kin. I stayed up all night to read this one.”
—Emma Törzs, author of Ink Blood Sister Scribe

“DeLozier’s beautiful prose carries us to a gritty, vibrant, utterly convincing Victorian England, and a possible answer to the age-old mystery of Jack the Ripper. It’s a compelling tale of tragedy and triumph, love lost and found, and the courage of a brave girl alone in a time full of terror, all during a day when well-bred young women were expected to be chaperoned at every moment. A great read!”
—Louisa Morgan, author of A Secret History of Witches

“An enthralling journey into the dark heart of Victorian London, The Whitechapel Full Moon Society is an exquisitely rendered world of locked rooms and enigmatic characters. It was a treat to keep pace with Caroline, our exciting heroine, as she raced to against time to unravel the insidious and many-layered mystery. I found the story suspenseful and satisfyingly macabre, with smart grounding in the ancient lore of Britain. Fans of Weyward will be pulled right in!”
—Anna Rasche, author of The Stone Witch of Florence
