"London, England, 1887: At the abandoned apartment of a missing young woman, a dossier of evidence is collected, ordered chronologically, and sent to the Chief Inspector of the London Police for review. It contains a curious correspondence between an inquisitive journalist, Miss Emily Gibson, and the woman Gibson thinks may be the infamous Mrs. Lovett--Sweeney Todd's accomplice, who baked men into pies and sold them in her pie shop on Fleet Street. A "wicked woman"--the talk of London Town. Rumors have swirled about Mrs. Lovett since the disappearance of hundreds of unwitting men decades prior--but is it actually Lovett, even if the suspected woman swears against it? As the woman relays the harrowing account of her life--from her upbringing on Butcher's Row, in the unruly and perilous streets of Victorian London, to her daring escape from a mad doctor--the correspondence unlocks an intricate mystery that brings Miss Gibson closer to the truth, even as that truth may cost her dearly. The Butcher's Daughter is a breathtaking epistolary journey, an inventive horror novel that sets the stage for the terrors of the modern era--and, at long last, unravels the true story behind Mrs. Lovett and her unspeakable crimes"--
