About this ebook
A deadly secret from the past resurfaces in this heart-pounding thriller from New York Times bestselling author David Golemon.
In 1887, brilliant American professor Lawrence Ambrose was contracted by the British Empire to create a mutant gene that would turn ordinary people into aggressive fighting machines. But when a streak of vicious murders was linked back to Ambrose, a massive cover-up was ordered by Queen Victoria to terminate the project and Ambrose himself. Thus, the legend of Jack the Ripper was born.
The killings stopped as suddenly as they had begun—but not because Ambrose was caught. He escaped back to America, where he and his formula faded into history. But in 2012, a raid against a Mexican drug lord uncovers a cache of antiquated notebooks containing the long-buried instructions to create blind killers out of normal men. Enter the Event Group and Col. Jack Collins, desperate to stop one of their most feared enemies. When the formula is unleashed in the underground halls of the Event Group complex itself, brother will battle brother, and they will understand the true meaning of fear.
In this next heart-stopping installment of the New York Times bestselling Event Group series, Ripper takes readers to new levels of suspense in a non-stop thrill ride where death could be hiding around any corner.

So many people making stupid decisions, hard to read. I don’t know how someone as credulous and gullible as Lynn would end up working for the CIA, much less in a leadership position. Far from the best Event Group book.
