Scopri la verità dietro il mito in The Complete Jack the Ripper di Paul Begg e John Bennett. Whitechapel, 1888: una serie di brutali omicidi diventa l'episodio criminale più noto nella storia di Londra. L'assassino, agghiacciantemente soprannominato "L'assassino di Whitechapel", "Grembiule di cuoio" e, più notoriamente, "Jack lo Squartatore", non viene mai processato per l'uccisione e la mutilazione di almeno cinque donne nei bassifondi di East London. Ma il mistero si infittisce con una lettera inviata "dall'inferno" a Scotland Yard, accompagnata da metà di un rene umano conservato... In questo resoconto completo del più famigerato assassino di Londra, le massime autorità sul caso esplorano i fatti dietro l'episodio più raccapricciante dell'era vittoriana. Ambientando la scena nell'East End impoverito, la meticolosa ricerca degli autori offre resoconti dettagliati delle vite delle vittime e un esame delle indagini della polizia. The Complete Jack the Ripper è il libro definitivo di Paul Begg e John Bennett, che esplora sia il mito che la realtà dietro l'allusivo assassino.
