Harriet was abandoned as a child in nineteenth-century London's East End. Ragged and terrified, she was forced to scavenge for her food until Mary Dean found her and took her to a smart house in Bow where she was brought up as a sister to Mary and her younger brother Arthur.

But 17 years later, Harriet and Arthur have fallen in love, and Harriet is pregnant. Driven out of Bow by neighbours who spit at them and call them heathens, they seek refuge in two rented rooms in Stepney.

Eking out a meagre but free existence, they are happy, but then Arthur, like so many others working as railway delivery-men, is caught pilfering and faces a prison sentence. However this is soon to be the least of their worries. Harriet has kept a diary she stole as a child, the diary of the perpetrator of the Whitechapel killings. The Jack the Ripper murders. And now the owner of the diary has returned to the East End in search of Harriet and the diary - and will stop at nothing to get it back...
