London, 1894. Police official Melville Macnaghten brings Oscar Wilde and Arthur Conan Doyle into a renewed investigation of the Whitechapel murders. The possibility that Jack the Ripper has returned forces them to reconsider the earlier crimes and the assumptions on which the police inquiry was built.

Wilde’s knowledge of London society and Doyle’s analytical habits lead them through testimony, neighbourhood connections and concealed identities. Their search for a solution turns the historical mystery of the Ripper into a fictional case whose answer threatens people close to the investigation.
