Canon Story: The Adventure of the Copper Beeches
Title: The Piper
Author: vaysh
Words: 60
Rating: R (for violence)
Author's Notes: Darkly inspired by the line 'a child who may some day play a considerable part in the history of the country.'


Twenty years after the Whitechapel murders, another killer haunts the East End. Witnesses describe him of small build, dressed in a frock of electric blue. He kills with a hammer, a blow smack on the head of his victims, three so far, all with chestnut hair. The Piper, the press calls him, as vermin is said to follow his path.
