But Jekyll's turn for the worse was only the beginning. Shortly after the doctor's untimely death, his estate is sold to cold-blooded banker Geoffrey Bodkin, who stumbles upon the fateful potion and unleashes his own alter-ego: Father Whitechapel, saintly almsgiver to the East End paupers. But what begins as a story of loving charity soon becomes one of embezzlement, scandal and murder, as Mr. Bodkin struggles to keep Father Whitechapel from being branded London's most notorious villain-Jack the Ripper. Keller masterfully evokes Victorian London and its vernacular in this suspenseful debut novel, taking literary adaptations to a new level of sophistication and virtuosity while exploring timeless themes of class warfare, the dark side of philanthropy, and the catastrophic consequences of unhindered goodness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e M.
