Two Bloggers One Series ~ Secrets in the Dark (Blackbird #2)

 So we are continuing with the Blackbird trilogy, a series we can wrap up this year...wooo! Once you checked out my thoughts go see Barb at Booker T's Farm. (Can't get the link to work, sorry)

Over a century after Jack, a new Ripper is on the loose.

Following in the footsteps of notorious serial murderer Jack the Ripper, a killer is stalking the streets of London. The self-dubbed Ripper King strikes at night, leaving a trail of eviscerated bodies in his wake. Fresh off a case with potential ties to the recent rash of killings, FBI agents Della Hamilton and Mason Carter are all too familiar with a slayer set to rule with a lethal fist. And they’ll stop at nothing to end his reign.

The killer’s MO may be nothing new, but his desire to be infamous makes him dangerous. Della and Mason know it’s only a matter of time before their investigation emboldens this new Ripper, forcing the agents to work quickly before another woman winds up dead. But now that the heat is on, their game of cat and mouse takes an unexpected turn, leading Della and Mason into a deadly trap they never saw coming…

-------------------------------------------

So Mason and Della are fresh of the Vampire killing case and now in London to work on another gruesome case involving someone who is doing Jack the Ripper style kills. They are urging young women to never be alone and don't let any charming gentlemen lead you off, but it's not stopping the guy who has dubbed himself the Ripper King. They are sure he is some how linked to the Vampire case but that guy isn't talking.

Della and Mason have teamed up with some from Scotland Yard since it could be linked to their other case and there is a young woman ghost who is trying to help them as well. The killer is pretty devious and he might have his sights set on Della!

I really like Della and Mason, they work well together both at work and as a romance. I also like the other secondary characters in this as the teaming up has been working great. I am very curious to read the next book.
