Ripper by Stefan Petrucha

New York City, 1895. Fourteen-year-old Carver Young dreams of becoming a detective, and when he’s adopted by a retired Pinkerton agent, that dream seems within reach. But his first case is unlike any other—letters surface that suggest Jack the Ripper has crossed the Atlantic. As bodies begin to appear in the city’s shadows, Carver is drawn into a deadly pursuit through dark alleys and gilded mansions, where the line between hunter and hunted blurs. To catch the killer, Carver must confront not only the truth of the murders but the terrifying secrets of his own past.
