Casebook Review:
Reader Review:  (240 votes)

The discovery of the Tumblety suspect may be the single greatest Ripper discovery of the 1990s. This is the book that first introduces us to him. The book is well researched and an interesting read, though many remain unconvinced by Evans's hypothesis. Recommended.
