Portrait Of A Killer: Patricia Cornwell

Between August and November 1888, at least seven women were murdered in Whitechapel. Their gruesome deaths caused panic and fear in the East End and gave rise to shorthand for a serial killer - Jack the Ripper. The Ripper murders have been among the world's greatest unsolved crimes and a wealth of theories have been posited which have encompassed royalty, a barber, a doctor, a woman and an artist. Here, the author applies modern police investigation methods using the extant evidence and makes a case for the identity of the Ripper. Who is it? You'll have to read it...Illustrated with black and white photographs.
