About this listen

Alongside Jack the Ripper there is another brutal serial killer roaming the streets of Victorian London....

Spring, 1890. The spectre of Jack the Ripper still haunts Inspector Walter Day; he alone is convinced that the Ripper remains at large. But now a new killer is terrorising the citizens of London. They call him the Harvest Man; he hides away in the attics of the unsuspecting, emerging at night to terrorise his victims.

This macabre new threat requires Inspector Day to confront his demons, but he soon discovers the game has only just begun....

Alex Grecian gets better and better with each instalment of this series. It is gruesome and gripping in equal measures.

Gripping

Enjoy the story very much, the only problem I found was the narrator having listen to all the other books in this series I was so used to the other voice .

Good book

I love this series of books, this one was a very good listen and I’m looking forward to the next. Perfect narration bringing to life all of the characters.

Great story and characters.

The Scotland Yard Murder Squad.

I'm just totally blown away with this series and I'm hoping audible will bring the others in the series out.

So Jacks still going strong and now the Harvest Mans also giving Walter Day a run for his money. It's dark, gory, fun and splendidly written and narrated.

This book really does keep you hooked and I'm afraid I gorged on it in one sitting....better go and do the back load of dishes, washing, hoovering etc now....ho hum...

Well worth the credit...

Brilliant!

This is a brilliant book. The series hust gets better and better. A lot more gore than the other books but not to bad. Had me on the edge of my seat almost constantly. You need to read the other books in the series in order 1st. Now please excuse me I have got to find out what happens next!!!!!!

Fantastic

Thoroughly enjoyable story especially the narration especially the narration took me to places to places I felt I was there with them

loved it

In my opinion, this series is really getting into its stride now - the characters are more rounded and fleshed out (unfortunate phrase perhaps) and we are on our way to rounding up the last of the villains released from prison in the last book. Don't forget though. Jack is still on the loose...

A scary continuation of a brilliant series

Really enjoyed the whole series. There weren’t many reviews for it but I’m very glad I took the chance. I’m a discerning and critical listener (not proud of it) but these stories were entertaining and interesting, very much helped by the brilliant narration. Might sound odd but he reminded me of Colin Firth, a similar tone of voice at times. Would definitely ‘read’ more, hope the series continues!

Great series!

Why oh why did they change the narrator 3 books in? It has taken so much away from the book especially when the narrator doesn't do the best job at the characters. Ruined this book for me. I wouldn't listened to another book in the series with the same narrator.

Such a shame
