The Thames Torso Murders

The river gives up its dead. An ancient voice begins to speak.

Victorian London. Disturbing discoveries along the Thames leave the police searching for answers and the city watching the water.

More than a century later, a man drowning in debt needs something people will pay to hear. An ancient vampire offers him a story.

In a cramped basement studio, the recording light comes on.

The vampire takes his audience into London's gaslit streets, where the river carries evidence of terrible violence. His recollections are vivid, his manners impeccable, and his opinion of humanity less than flattering.

Across the table, the podcaster tries to keep his voice steady. He needs this broadcast to work.

His guest seems perfectly comfortable in the dark.
