An impossible killer stalks the streets of London.

Jack the Ripper faded into history over a century ago, his identity lost to the ages. Until a work crew restoring a Mayfair home make a shocking find. A secret basement room walled up since Victorian times. The Whitechapel murderer's lair. And inside, a corpse that has waited in silent darkness for over a hundred years. But it won't stay that way...

Within hours of the room's discovery, the body goes missing, and the murders begin anew.

With a violent killer on the loose and the body count rising, John Decker, still new to CUSP, is sent to England, along with seasoned operative Colum O'Shea. Their mission: stop a ruthless monster from obtaining the one thing that will allow him to escape forever.

As the city huddles in fear and the terror mounts, Decker finds himself in a race against time to catch a hellish fiend smarter than any he has ever faced. Because if he doesn't, the next death might hit a little too close to home.

This is book five in the John Decker series, but it can be read as a standalone novel.If you are a fan of James Rollins, Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child, and Steve Alten, you will love the John Decker series.

What Readers are Saying About the John Decker Series

★★★★★ I have been looking for books like those written by Douglas Preston/Lincoln Child (since I devoured all of theirs) & I think I have found them! Hard to categorize.....part thriller, part suspense, part horror/supernatural, all good! – Goodreads Review

★★★★★ John Decker is a "Monster Hunter" & I loved following his hunt for this monster! One way I judge a book is whether or not I will be looking for more by the author or in the series. This is definitely one that will add Anthony Strong to my TBR list! – Beverly Laude, Goodreads Review

★★★★★ An exciting and fast-paced read! In the best traditions of Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Bentley Little, et al, Anthony M Strong has delivered a rollicking read where alongside a well-told, thrilling story, you get fine characterization which makes you care about the people populating this tale! I would heartily recommend it - I am looking forward to reading more of his work... - F Dalgleish, Amazon review
