About this title

Synopsis

There have been countless attempts to solve the brutal murders committed over 100 years ago by Jack the Ripper, but this most famous of British criminal cases finally benefits from a clear, professional eye to analyze the evidence with all the benefits of modern investigative techniques. Former murder squad detective Trevor Marriott considers a mystery that has enthralled millions. Casting aside the rumors, fantasies, and urban legends which have haunted this case for so long, he produces some startling results: while it has long been accepted that Jack the Ripper killed only five women, Marriot believes there were up to nine victims. Most astonishingly of all, a previously unconsidered suspect who also committed murders in America and Germany has been firmly put in the frame. All previous theories are refuted in what may possibly be the final word on the Ripper murders.

From the Publisher

Over the last century, there have been countless attempts to solve the brutal murders committed by Jack the Ripper. What this most famous of British criminal cases has always required is a clear, professional eye to analyze the evidence, using all that modern forensics has to offer. Now former murder squad detective Trevor Marriott does just that, casting aside the rumors, fantasies, and urban legends—with startling results. He asserts that the tally of victims may be far higher than previously believed, and that the real killer, a completely new suspect, had unique access to the area of the murders. Jack the Ripper: The Forensic Profile may be the final word on Britain's most grisly and notorious secret killer.
