The shocking murders carried out by an unknown serial killer in London's East End during the autumn of 1888, haunted the public imagination at the time and have continued to exert a baleful influence ever since. But what was it like to live through those terrifying weeks?

This audiobook looks at the crimes of Jack the Ripper through the eyes of Londoners, including the rumors that swept through the capital city, the alarms, the riots, the persecutions, the suspicions, and the sheer naked terror of the awful autumn when a killer stalked the streets.

Compared to other books on the subject, this is relatively short but it’s a fantastic listen. It gives a broad perspective on life in Whitechapel, which would appear more caring and community based then I realised. I’d highly recommend this. A good, informative listen.

Fascinating!

If you want not only an analysis of the ripper crimes but also an overview of how the crimes were perceived, the prevailing attitudes of common people and police; the values that influenced them in this era then this is the book for you. Brilliantly presented information for anyone interested in Victorian policing - not just Jack the Ripper.

Wonderfully detailed
