Description: YOU KNOW THE NAME. YOU'VE HEARD THE STORIES. In 1887, the British Empire contracted brilliant American professor Lawrence Ambrose to create a mutant gene--and turn an ordinary man into an aggressive fighting machine. But all too quickly, Ambrose was found to be behind a streak of vicious murders, and in a cover-up of massive proportions, Queen Victoria gave an order to have the project, and Ambrose, terminated. Thus the legend of Jack the Ripper was born... NOW IT'S UP TO THE EVENT GROUP TO LAY THE LEGEND TO REST--AND PUT AN END TO ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST VIOLENT ENEMIES. The killings stopped as suddenly as they had begun, though not because Ambrose was caught. Instead, he escaped and returned to America, where he and his work faded into history...until 2012, when a raid against a Mexican drug lord uncovers a small cache of antiquated notebooks that appear to have belonged to the mad genius. Enter Col. Jack Collins and the Event Group, who are desperate to put a stop to one of history's most notorious enemies. Or die trying... "The event group continues the tradition of mixing history with page-turning suspense." -- Booklist
