The Executioner's Heart: A Newbury & Hobbes Investigation by George Mann
A serial killer is loose on the streets of London, murdering apparently random members of the gentry with violent abandon. The corpses are each found with their chest cavities cracked open and their hearts removed. Charles Bainbridge, Chief Inspector of Scotland Yard, suspects an occult significance to the crimes and brings Newbury and Veronica in to investigate.
"Steampunk is making a comeback, and with this novel Mann is leading the charge.. An engaging melodrama that rattles along at a breakneck pace." (The Guardian)"
