- Sherlock Holmes is in a familiar state at the start of this story, that most odious state of abject boredom as he turns to some of his old habits to pass the time (much to Watson's displeasure), while outside (unbeknownst to the two) a prostitute's life is being snuffed out in a most brutal fashion on the streets of Whitechapel. It will not be the last. Regardless, Holmes opts to conduct his own investigation into the murders... an investigation which will take him into the dark heart of one of history's most lurid murder mysteries.

| - Sherlock Holmes is in a familiar state at the start of this story, that most odious state of abject boredom as he turns to some of his old habits to pass the time (much to Watson's displeasure), while outside (unbeknownst to the two) a prostitute's life is being snuffed out in a most brutal fashion on the streets of Whitechapel. It will not be the last. Naturally, such a shocking murder makes the morning headlines (since a similar murder apparently happened about a month earlier). At first Holmes is not surprised about such incidents, nor particularly interested... as such crimes are common occurrence on the streets of Whitechapel. After some nudging from Doctor Watson, Holmes agrees to go the Police Station to try and assist. But despite his reputation, the higher-ups on the case are confident in their own abilities to solve the case, thus aren't very forthcoming with police reports or help for that matter. Regardless, Holmes opts to conduct his own investigation into the murders... an investigation which will take him into the dark heart of one of history's most lurid murder mysteries.
