Synopsis

Jack the Ripper, the late-Victorian killer who brought terror to London's Whitechaple, still prowls our imaginations today. His victims were all female prostitutes; most had their throats cut and were gruesomely butchered. The case unleashed an avalanche of letters claiming responsibility for the murders, but the Rippers identity was never established despite the best efforts of Scotland Yard.
