Each dawn, Ed roused from sleep with a sombre, desolate sensation and instinctively reached for his notepad, capturing the emotions before they slipped away. These bleak feelings seemed to permeate every moment of his waking existence, becoming a persistent presence that lingered within him. Even so, he remained resolute in expressing these visions, capturing them on paper as an act of defiance against the weight of his emotions. Day by day, he continued to battle against the tide of melancholy that threatened to engulf him, turning to his notepad each morning as a source of solace and catharsis. For Ed, writing was a means of processing and confronting the darkness that plagued him, an instrument of self-expression that allowed him to find meaning and purpose in his struggles."I've found it a really enjoyable book to work on; I've worked on a few books about Jack the Ripper in the past and thought that this was a very original take with combining that history with your story about Ed." Mark Swift.
