The Whitechapel Horrors

It's been a while since I read this book but I remember thinking that it was the best(aside from originals of course) Holmes novel I'd read. Since then I've read a dozen or so more and I still think this one is the best. Hanna does a great job of re-creating the atmosphere of Victorian London and manages to give Holmes and Watson more character in some ways than Doyle was allowed while writing in the 1890's. If interested in reading more about the famous duo then this book is well worth it. I just wish it was easier to find.

Edward B Hanna is right on the mark, from the first chapter I felt transported into Victorian england, who would have thought a Holmes Pastiche could be so good, but I must agree with Ted koppel, this book IS good, very well written, and well researched, my congrats to the author, please write more !!

Excellent weaving of fact and fiction by Mr. Hanna. Has the authentic feel of a Sherlock mystery. Great work!

I just enjoyed reading this book. I got hooked from the beginning and couldn't put it down. The plot is very exciting and interesting which makes the novel easy to enjoy. Edward Hanna's first novel is without a shadow of a doubt a success. He should continue to write Holmes stories confronting him against maybe the Phantom of the Opera, Arsene Lupin, etc.

This is an incredibly informative thriller showcasing the personification of evil being hunted by the personification of good. It is a tense cat-and-mouse game being played by the only person who could possibly outwit the great Sherlock Holmes! The book starts out quickly and keeps you in suspense until the ending. The author obviously spent exhaustive hours researching to give the book all the realism it could possibly have. Several of the characters are the real officers who tracked the real Jack the Ripper. Very good!
