It is an alternate history using 19th century English historical settings and personalities, along with characters from popular fiction.

The reader is alternately and sympathetically introduced to various points of view. The main characters are Jack the Ripper, and his hunters Charles Beauregard (an agent of the Diogenes Club), and Geneviève Dieudonné, a senior vampire. From the book cover: "The most comprehensive, brilliant, dazzlingly audacious vampire novel to date." (Locus) "A tour de fource which succeeds brilliantly." (The Times) "A marvellous marriage of political satire, melodramatic intrigue, gothic horror, and alternative history." (The Independent)."
