"Welcome to Jack the Ripper 101. My name is Dr. Teagan Faelynn. I know the true identity of history's most notorious serial killer - because he came for me."

The discovery of a new Ripper journal sends Teagan on a journey to London...or so she thinks. But she finds herself plunged into a hidden world of witches, fairies, dragons and Valkyries - and that's just her friends.

How can Teagan hunt the Ripper and bring him to justice? In the modern world, or in a secret Victorian England where nothing is as it seems?

Join the Paranormal Institute for Research and Rescue.

And travel back in time to solve a centuries-old mystery - if you survive....

I loved this book! So basically Tegan is a history buff who is drawn back home to London and discovers she is from a magical family and mythic creatures and worlds are real. She and two others have to travel back in time to catch the ripper. This was a very fun listen, some comedy, mystery, action, and a touch of romance. The narrator is excellent, she manages various accents and genders perfectly! Great first book and I can’t wait till the next! I received a free review copy of this book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

I want the next one!!!

This is a time travel book. It will interest you from the beginning until the end. The characters Teagan, Ovidia and Bran bring you along in their journey, not just in their personal lives but also with their journeys thru time and solving cases from the past.

I loved the description and I thought this is right up my street.

It starts of slow and it takes a while before it builds up. I would not have minded this so much if the characters are interesting.

I found the main two characters to be confusing. The male character (love interest) acted like an immature teenager. He played around yet he know something about the main character. Which I don't want to say what since I'll end up spoiling it. Usually the guy/girl would try and win their love interest but not in this case, so I did not believe in this love between them.

The other thing is that the main female character has a PhD in Jack the ripper murders, yet once she went back in time she did not contribute anything to the investigation. I felt like she did not know a lot about that era. Another reviewer said this felt more like a YA and I would agree with her. Also I imagined her as a 19 year old (more due to the way she acted) then a 24 year old.
It was not a bad book and I would still recommend it. I will be reading other books by this author.

I simply loved this audio book! Starting with the narrator, Corinne Davies' performance was marvelous. She slipped in and out of characters and accents as seamless as breathing, from an American accent, to Hugh's thick Welsh brogue, to a stodgy English one, and then back again... 
The title of the book initially caught my attention, although not an aficionado of Jack the Ripper per se, I do enjoy a good yarn where he's featured and hopefully gets his butt kicked... and there's time travel, too. That is seriously one of my favorite tropes...
This story introduces us to Teagan Faelynn, a  professor of history at Duke University, and she's also a  "Jack the Ripper buff".
 Some supposedly new information about the Ripper has been found, and Teagan is drawn away from her job, all the way to London, where things really start to go sideways... Teagan has to land on her feet if she wants to keep up with, and survive this madcap tale!

I loved this audio edition...

I do like some weird content and this one definitely fits the bill! '1888 - Ripper File' is a story about a young woman who, while discovering her true paranormal identity, must travel back in time to try and prevent The Ripper from successfully killing his infamous victims. This 'paranormal story' had a bit too much romance in it for my taste, but I'll let that slide because I thought the rest of what the tale had to offer was well worth hearing. Corinne Davies brings the story to life in a way that truly elevated the listening experience. I would only recommend this story to readers who enjoy romance/paranormal stories!
