Ripper Street - Season 1
Begins a series of powerful dramatic and criminal events that seem strong, where the mother of a girl who used to work for Long Susan is killed, along with the rental collector. The girl claims she has no memory of the event, which may be related to the construction of a new railway. On the other hand, there is a man dying in the street for no known reason, where everyone suspects that cholera is the cause of this.
