Story: A researcher investigating a notorious serial killer who was hanged 20 years earlier seemingly becomes possessed by the long dead strangler.

A writer investigating the execution of a serial killer known as "The Haymarket Strangler" 20 years previously begins to suspect that the wrong man might have been hanged. However, when he picks up a scalpel used by the murderer, he finds himself possessed by the killers spirit and begins committing similar murders.

1880, London. With his assistant, Canadian Dr. Kenneth McColl, by his side, McColl also the suitor for his daughter Lilys hand, novelist and social crusader James Rankin wants to write about someone he considers wrongly convicted, he choosing Edward Styles, hanged in 1860 as the supposed Haymarket Strangler who choked then stabbed to death five women in separate incidents. Styles professed his innocence all the way to the gallows. Rankin posits that if Styles had the resources to mount a credible defense, he would have been acquitted, and that he was wrongly accused as being easily identifiable solely as a one-armed man, however not *the* one-armed man who committed the crimes. In doing the subsequent research, including speaking to Styles chief accuser, Cora Seth, a singer at the Judas Hole, a bawdy music hall, the Strangler who killed Seths colleague, Martha Stewart, Rankin comes to the belief that the Strangler truly is Dr. Tennant, who conducted Styles autopsy, who Rankin further believes buried the knife used in the stabbings along with Styles, but who disappeared without a trace shortly thereafter. In his attempts to exhume Styles body to prove his theory regarding the knife, seemingly futile in no one believing that theory, Rankin enters into a dangerous game which may prove fatal, including to himself, in the resurrection of the Strangler.
