Description

Following the fading fortunes of a predatory clutch of ragged book dealers scavenging for wealth and meaning amongst the city's hidden tomes, White Chappell, Scarlet Tracings reveals a present-day London rooted in a dark and resonant past. The chance discovery of a dust-torn classic is hailed as a triumph, but within its battered covers lie uneasy clues to the century-old riddle of the Whitechapel murders. Part biography, part mystery, part exorcism, White Chappell, Scarlet Tracings explores the occult relationship between fiction and history and examines how their bloody collision has given birth to the London of today.
