"The Map of Time"

I have had this book for awhile and was never really pulled in within the first chapter. But recently I sat down and made myself keep reading and now I am hooked. Felix Palma is writing about a man in the upper class of London who falls for a prostitute. He begins the book in the present and goes to the past to bring the reader up to the present. There are of course murders of prostitutes taking place which I was starting to link to the infamous Jack the Ripper and then Palma comes out and introduces this serial killer to the plot through newsclippings and articles. Now I'm definitely hooked.
