Excerpt: The walk to the dockyards was quiet and uneventful, giving Lucas more than enough time to gather his thoughts and think on the recent events that had hit Arkham. While the city was hardly crime free, it had not suffered a serial murderer for over one hundred years, and that alone was reason enough for the press to be carrying the story. Unfortunately for the dead girls, their apparent profession made them invisible in the eyes of the public at large; and while the masses tsked and clucked and shook their heads, no one was surprised by the killings. Lucas had even heard some people suggesting that this murderer was doing the world a favour by ridding them of these parasites. It had taken all of Knight’s willpower not to upend a nearby table and bludgeon that particular man with it.
