Summary
It's 1852 in London, and Edmund Whitty, dissipated tabloid correspondent, has just come up with the name Chokee Bill for the fiend who has been choking prostitutes with a white silk scarf. With the arrest of William Ryan for the… crime, the city can breathe again, but Whitty discovers that the murders are continuing. While fighting off his creditors and his addictions, he endeavours to find the real Chokee Bill, greeted with hostility on all sides. Some strong language and descriptions of violence. 2003.
