You thought you knew him. You were dead wrong.

Carver Young dreams of becoming a detective, despite growing up in an orphanage with only crime novels to encourage him. But when he is adopted by Detective Hawking of the world famous Pinkerton Agency, Carver is given not only the chance to find his biological father, he finds himself smack in the middle of a real life investigation: tracking down a vicious serial killer who has thrown New York City into utter panic. When the case begins to unfold, however, it’s worse than he could have ever imagined, and his loyalty to Mr. Hawking and the Pinkertons comes into question. As the body count rises and the investigation becomes dire, Carver must decide where his true loyalty lies.

Full of whip-smart dialogue, kid-friendly gadgets, and featuring a then New York City Police Commisioner Teddy Roosevelt, Ripper challenges everything you thought you knew about the world’s most famous serial killer.

Judgment Of Books Ripper

First off I would like to say I would have given this 3 stars if I hadn't at one point predicted the mystery. Ripper is a story about a kid named Carver young that takes place in the 1800's. Carver is an orphan from Elias Island and one day runs into a man named Albert Hawking. This Albert Hawking figure adopts Carver and puts him under his mentor-ship. The story continues on and Carver starts to find out his connection with a serial killer the Ripper. Something I didn't like about the book is

Wow. A truly amazing murder mystery/what if historical-fiction. I absolutely loved this book. Intriguing and fast-paced from the very beginning, Ripper is, in my opinion, one of the best YA books published this year. Carver is a resourceful young man, inquisitive, witty, and everything an amateur detective character should be. And he admires all of the best and brightest literary detectives. And Hawking has the classic, yet perfect, humor that all "foul-tempered, old mentors" are supposed to

True confession time: when my name was called at Penguin's "What's Coming" panel at San Diego Comic-Con last month, I was a little disappointed, as just a few books earlier, they had an early release of the latest Dresden Files book, which wasn't yet out in stores. Still, the idea of an upper-middle-grade book about Jack the Ripper was an intriguing premise, and my kids go through books like potato chips. I put it off for a few weeks, because middle grade isn't normally my comfort zone in

As seen on: Bookosaur4.5/5This book is bloody fantastic. See what I did there? Bloody fantastic, since it's a novel about Jack the Ripper?. . . Oh, hey. I didn't expect you to continue reading after my word play there. Your persistence could only mean one thing: you really want to read a review. Alright, alright . . .I loved this book to pieces.. . . You're still here? Seriously? Even after that one? Though I have many more of those bad boys up my sleeve, I will nonetheless crack on with my

So Stefan Petrucha has let old Saucy Jack out of the garden shed, this time to run around New York and get chased by a teen with steampunk gadgets out of an old Wild Wild West TV script. This is a kind of YA "The Alienist" as it is the mid 1890s and so the NYC police commissioner is Teddy Roosevelt, who is mostly antagonistic to the young hero, Carver Young (groan with me at the name) an orphan who wants to become a detective, for probably the same reason that Hermie the Elf wanted to be a

Wow. I had a feeling this book would be great, but I had no clue it would be as wonderful as it turned out to be. Im in love. Can I have more books starring Carver, Delia, and Finn?Carver Young is just a poor orphan with a lock-picking skill and a love for mysteries, when he gets oddly adopted by a retired Pinkerton agent, Albert Hawking. Hawking plans to teach Carver how to be a great detective, although his methods are quite crazy. Craver is brought into a secret society of detectives and is

Not what I expected in the least. I had no idea it was teen book. I thought it was yet another take on Jack the Ripper, which it was. But I thought it was an adult horror not a teen adventure. Lots of silly parts which may have entertained a younger version of me. But this take barely kept my interest and too many juvenile twists.
