Sinopse

“Slade is at his peak with Ripper. A schizophrenic whodunit complete with locked rooms and self-triggering death devices. Highly enjoyable.” —Time Out London   An American feminist is found hanging, her body slashed to shreds, her face flayed. Two hookers are murdered, their corpses mutilated in a similar pattern. These gruesome deaths are only the beginning of the trail Canadian Mountie Robert DeClercq will follow as he attempts to catch a brutal psychopath. It’s a journey that takes him through the history of Satanism and the occult, searching for a serial killer’s demons. Demons all too similar to the ones that drove Jack the Ripper . . .   A revised and expanded version of the original Ripper, which was first published in 1994.   “Intense enough to require seatbelts.” —Quill & Quire   “Slade knows psychos inside out.” —Toronto Star   “Builds up to a climax almost too frantically gripping for words.” —The Northern Echo   “A shocking insight into the psyche of the insane.” —Canadian Lawyer

Eric abandons his fiancé, Eleanor, at the Edinburgh Christmas market, following a mysterious woman back to the hotel she owns in the Highlands. Here he meets the men that staff the vacant rooms. Men like him. Men with something to hide… 
By day, the men carry out their domestic chores in the hotel, cut off from the rest of the world by the snow. At night, they tell horror stories beside the fire, hoping to entertain the woman they serve. They do not ask why there are no guests, why it always snows, why they can't go home. Seeds of doubt begin to plague Eric and, as he delves deeper into the lives of the men at the hotel, secrets are uncovered. 
The Gingerbread Men mixes Shining-esque mystery with dark fairy-tales, serving up a perfect Highland hotel horror. Joanna Corrance’s nightmarish novel explores the quiet corridors of desire that pull us, and the places occupied by men and women in the tales we’re all familiar with.
