The Dr. Thomas Bond series by Sarah Pinborough takes the real-life figure of the Victorian physician who examined Jack the Ripper’s victims and places him at the center of a horror story. Bond, who in reality helped pioneer criminal profiling, becomes the protagonist of a dark investigation that goes beyond the historical record into supernatural territory.
Mayhem (2013) and Murder (2013) make up the duology. The books are set in the fog and filth of Victorian London, and Pinborough uses the period setting to build a thick atmosphere of dread. Readers who enjoy horror with a historical foundation will find this a strong pairing.
