Not for the squeamish, this novel doesn’t spare the gory details but balances the darkness with engaging characters and plenty of witty repartee.
Stalking jack the Ripper is one of the first titles to be released under the Jimmy Patterson imprint at Hachette Book Group, James Patterson’s new imprint for younger readers.
Meet Kerri Maniscalco Sunday at 3:00. Free presentation and refreshments followed by book signing at Spellbound Children’s Bookshop at 640 Merrimon Avenue, upstairs from The Hop in the Merrimon Square shopping center. Call 828-575-2266 or visit www.spellboundbookshop.com for details or to reserve a copy of the book.
