Summary

In this groundbreaking investigation into the unsolved Whitechapel Murders case of 1888, Tom Slemen uncovers a shocking possibility - that the Jack the Ripper murders were executed by a military-trained assassin hired by the British Intelligence Service.

Revisiting the horrific evidence, intriguing testimonies and official documents from the time, this shocking exposé explores links between the notorious Ripper murders and the relationship each female victim had to an Irish terrorist alliance with the anarchist movement; links that reveal a frightening new possibility - that the most infamous murders ever committed can be traced to the office of the Prime Minister himself. Exhaustively researched, highly controversial in its conclusions, this compelling account has shattered all previous theories about Jack the Ripper and shed new light on the blackest operation of Victorian times.

Gripping on the edge

Like my headline gripping on the edge, listening to the tail of Jack the Ripper. I learned a lot of things what was happening within that century within Victorian time.

Well researched and good addition but unbearable narration

A very well researched book which gives a balanced measured appraisal and offers some very interesting ( if contestable) angles and evidence . It’s important to look at events in London at the time inc the Irish situation and dispel the ludicrous “ top hatred toff” aspect .
The narration ( American ) is beyond poor ,it’s staccato without variance or offers even the slightest hint of emotion or empathy . Good book horrific audio
