Review for Initiated to Kill by Sharlene Almond



Two men from two different generations, both initiated into a powerful organization that throughout history has sought control and uses their power for destruction. They leave behind a wake of murder, manipulation and ancient secrets.

The first man wreaks havoc in and around the Whitechapel district of London, England in the 19th century. While the other stalks his victims in the cosmopolitan city of Seville, Spain in the 21st century; knowing that only he could uncover the true motives of one of the world’s most infamous serial killers—Jack the Ripper.

My Review

 Sharlene Almond's "Initiated to Kill" is a standalone read. I've always had a morbid fascination with Jack the Ripper, so those parts of the book really intrigued me. The characters and the story show a lot of depth. There is a lot going on and it can be easy to get a little lost at the beginning. Some streamlining could have been done to make this more palatable. I want to see what else this author has out there.

 3.5 out of 5 stars
