Grace Flynn
London 1888, Jack the Ripper is on the loose terrorizing the citizens of Whitechapel. The Queen of England sends a mysterious agent to uncover the truth of the vile monster hunting England's streets. The trail of blood leads to an even bigger mystery and to a darker enemy of the Crown, itself. While on Mont Orgueil, Grace Flynn, a prisoner of both England and France awaits her execution for a very long list of crimes. She is considered a danger to society and even the Holy See has proclaimed her an evil most foul. Her executioners proclaim her life of misdeeds and escapades has drawn to a close. Until a living myth named Baron Daedalus arrives with an unorthodox offer of freedom. Grace's redemption will be found through a journey skirting the bowels of Hell itself. She will face nightmares once thought to exist only in legend and superstition. A secret veil that hides things of the supernatural from mortal eyes has been lifted by the hand of the man who hunts them. Yet does he pose a threat to Grace as well...only Baron Daedalus knows for sure!

Overall I enjoyed the idea of the book, but not so much the execution. There were grammatical errors as well as a few choppy sentences and such.
I was told by the author himself that it was supposed to be a kind of pro woman, anti sexualized book about a pirate named Grace Flynn but it mostly wasn’t.
While Flynn wasn’t sexualized, she really played a small role in the book until the very end. She is somehow forming a friendly companionship with Baron Daedalus but the reader isn’t shown any interaction where they would be forming this connection.
Most of the book is through Baron Deadalus’ POV, not Flynn’.
Overall, I don’t get a chance as a reader to feel a connection to any of the characters or to the story.
