OverviewStalking Jack the Ripper meets Devil in the White City in this terrifying historical fiction debut about one of the world's most notorious serial killers. In order to save her sister, Zuretta takes a job at an infamous house of horrors--but she might never escape. Zuretta never thought she'd encounter a monster. She had resigned herself to a quiet life in Utah. But when her younger sister, Ruby, travels to Chicago during the World's Fair, and disappears, Zuretta leaves home to find her. But 1890s Chicago is more dangerous and chaotic than she imagined. She doesn't know where to start until she learns of her sister's last place of employment . . . a mysterious hotel known as The Castle. Zuretta takes a job there hoping to learn more. And before long she realizes the hotel isn't what it seems. Women disappear at an alarming rate, she hears crying from the walls, and terrifying whispers follow her at night. In the end, she finds herself up against one of the most infamous mass murderers in American history--and his custom-built death trap.

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationBryce Moore is the author of The Memory Thief and Vodnik, among others. When he's not authoring, he's a librarian in Western Maine and a past president of the Maine Library Association. And when he's not up to his nose in library work, he's watching movies, playing board games, and paying ridiculous amounts of money feeding his Magic the Gathering addiction. Christa Lewis has narrated 200-plus audiobooks. She is a classically trained actress with a four-year conservatory training in voice and acting. She has a smart and funny vibe, but can also meet the moment in straightforward or somber works of nonfiction thanks to a seventeen-year stint as a newsreader. Christa speaks accent-free German fluently and offers a variety of believable accents and dialects. Her narrations are well received: there have been seven AudioFile Earphones Awards across a variety of genres-biography and memoir, YA, and literary fiction-as well as a 2019 SOVAS Voice Arts Award in Biography and two Audie nominations.
