The “research is undoubtedly impressive” on this “bloody good read” proposing a theory behind the police cover-up that allowed Jack the Ripper to go free (The Guardian). For over a hundred years, the mystery of Jack the Ripper has been a source of unparalleled fascination and horror, spawning an army of obsessive theorists and endless volumes purporting to finally reveal the identity of the brutal murderer who terrorized Victorian England.

Michael Deal is a novel about one man's struggle to find his place in the human community. The structure of the book reflects its theme. Every action sequence, every series of events, every chapter, as well as the entire book as an organic whole, exhibits the identical structure as its protagonist attempts to "fit in," is frustrated and fails, and reacts in one of two ways, withdrawal or attack, until at the very end of the novel he finds his own way of coming to terms with the issue. This blending of structure and theme is masterfully accomplished in the Africa sequence, which constitutes most of chapter two, the longest of the novel's three chapters. The theme of finding one's place may not be unique; but Vivelo's voice, as well as his manner of presenting this perennial concern, is decidedly different from that of any other novelist.
