The murders in London between 1888-91 attributed to Jack the Ripper constitute one of the most mysterious unsolved criminal cases. This story is the result of many years meticulous research. The author reassesses all the evidence and challenges everything we thought we knew about the Victorian serial killer and the vanished East End he terrorised. Distilling the truth from what is the most infamous unsolved mystery, the author finally unmasks Jack the Ripper, the most infamous, but never identified, serial killer in the history of the world. Complemented with illustrations and supported by historical evidence, this is compelling reading for anyone interested in Jack the Ripper.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Colin Kendell became a professional genealogist in 1988 and have been able to combine research into the Ripper murders with my work. He had several articles published in the now defunct Criminologist magazine, including one suggesting that the badly disfigured woman found dead in the room of the final victim Mary Kelly was not actually her. Other authors have since taken up that idea.
In 1995, he was invited to contribute to Who Was Jack the Ripper? the brainchild of Camille Woolf, veteran True Crime bookseller.
Also in 1995 he appeared on Mastermind and reached the semi-final answering question on The Whitechapel Murders of 1888 (Scored 16, no passes, one wrong). He conducts the occasional "Ripper Walk" around Whitechapel and lives in Harrow.
