Publisher's Synopsis
From August 7 to September 10 in 1888, "Jack the Ripper" terrorized the Whitechapel district in London's East End. He killed at least five prostitutes and unusually mutilated their bodies, indicating that the killer knew human anatomy. Jack the Ripper was never captured and remains one of England's, and the world's, most infamous criminals.
Within the space of just three months, this unnamed fiend would claim at least five lives. Then, he mysteriously vanished, leaving behind a trail of mutilated corpses and a scar upon our collective psyche that endures to this day.
The atrocities attributed to Jack the Ripper have become the stuff of legend. And like any legend, they have become the subject of wild speculation and unfounded theory...until now.
Join true crime author Robert Keller as he embarks upon a forensic examination of this most enigmatic of murder cases.
