Book ID/图书代码： 10000007B17856
English Summary/英文概要： Late one night after a strange tube journey to Whitechapel in East London,Paul makes a new friend, John Reaper - daring and enigmatic, just as
Paul longs to be, away from his cloying mother (his only family - so he thinks). Redman charms Paul at once, but also a girl called Jude they
meet on a night about town. A few days later, Paul learns that Jude has mysteriously died, and Redman has disappeared. Shortly after that, one of
Paul’s teacher dies suddenly - frightened to death - near where Jude’s body was found. A link for sure. And Paul feels implicated, because both
victims were known to him. He senses Redman, who comes and goes as it suits him, is involved as well. His new friend is dangerous. But so, we
learn, is Paul. In uncovering the truth about Redman he learns shocking facts about himself. There’s an evil curse loose in his family and Paul is the latest inheritor. The spree of death - camouflagued as copycat Jack the Ripper-style murders - will continue until Paul confronts the demon in himself head on.
