Departed has Leopold Blake and his merry band (Jerome the body guard and Mary Jordan a NYPD sergeant) heading for London to help Scotland Yard and MI5 solve a serial murder case. Someone is slashing the throats of prostitutes and then carving up the corpses, in Jack the Ripper fashion. Leopold is a criminologist who is often called on to help the police. This time he is in a real mess and doesn't know who to trust. There are several twists and you really are not sure who the murderer is until almost the last page. I gave it 4 stars, because the characters seem a bit too perfect. It is a good mystery and I recommend it to mystery lover.
