Dead Nobles — Clifford Roberts

Dead Nobles is the story of Tam-o'-shanter, an unmarried police detective in Lower Manhattan. Tam-o'-shanter's investigative expertise is put to the test when a killer, a regular Jack the Ripper, begins butchering people caught up in the vortex of the city's nightlife.

Although faced with stopping him at all cost, Tam, one of the city's finest detectives and known to keep his ear to the ground, would soon find himself searching the bowels of the city, coming up short every time, while rigid bodies, bleeding drops of red, turns up repeatedly, evil sounding a barbaric yawp over the rooftops of the world.
