BBC One präsentiert die achtteilige Serie...
Zitat:
London in April 1889, six months since the last Jack the Ripper killing, and the story of H Division responsible for policing one and a quarter square miles of East London with a population of 67,000 of the poor and dispossessed. H Division was charged with keeping order in the chaos of Whitechapel. Its men had hunted Jack the Ripper and failed to find him, and with more women being murdered on the streets of Whitechapel the police begin to wonder if the killer has returned.
Between the factories, rookeries, chop shops, brothels and pubs Detective Inspector Edmund Reid (Matthew Macfadyen), haunted by a tragic past mistake, is accompanied by the brawn of Detective Sergeant Bennett Drake (Jerome Flynn) and the brilliance of the US Army surgeon and one-time Pinkerton detective, Captain Homer Jackson (Adam Rothenberg).
Their paths cross with Tenter Street brothel madam Long Susan (MyAnna Buring) who came to London with Jackson with whom she has an uneasy relationship with Jackson now preferring one of her most profitable girls Rose Erskine (Charlene McKenna).
Newspaperman Fred Best (David Dawson) always ready to sensationalise a story for profit knows Reid's past mistake.
