The Name of the Star by Maureen Johnson (372 Pages)






In a heart-stopping thriller, “The Name of Star” follows Rory Deveaux, a Louisiana teenager making the move to a boarding school in London, England. The day Rory arrives to her new home, a horrific murder occurs, executed nearly the exact way Jack the Ripper’s first murder was. Soon, more murders happen, mimicking the Ripper to the exact day and hour. London is in a panic, and Rory is the only person who has seen the man who is believed to be the Killer.


                Thrown into something she doesn't quite understand, Rory must race against the clock to help stop the killer before she becomes the next victim.
