This is an exceptionally detailed, and as a result, deep and sometimes brutal investigation of the Jack the Ripper murders. Reconstructions of the scenes, including the few photographs taken at some of the later murders, as well as news paper prints and pictures from the time are available throughout the book. You get a real sense of not just the brutality and uniqueness of the murders, but the time period and areas in which they were committed. A must for anyone interested in one of the worlds greatest unsolved murder cases. ( )

A very good summary of the case, with a lot of modern theories summarised nicely. The CGI reconstructions of the crime scenes, maps, & contemporary illustrations serve to highlight various parts of the text. A very good final chapter highlights no specific suspect but does cover all the major theories. Very good. Concise, but helpful to both the amateur & professional "ripperologist" ( )
