Publisher's summary

A theory like no other and an over century long secret, revealed!

The Whitechapel murders during the Autumn of terror in 1888 left a city paralyzed in fear. The murderer went down in infamy as his identity has never been uncovered - until now! Many have speculated over the Ripper's identity since then, but S. M. Cornthwaite believes to have truly uncovered the truth behind the mystery.

The author takes you on a journey of discovery by piecing together the evidence by using psychology, sociology, criminology, and historical facts to reveal the truth. The theory presented in these pages is one that no one has ever explored. Most researchers believe the Ripper to be a Polish Jew, a lunatic, or even some other known killer, but you'll soon understand, this couldn't possibly be the case. How could everyone have gotten it so wrong, for so long, and not seen the horrible truth? That Jack the Ripper, was the last person anyone would ever suspect.

Seriously?!

For anyone who still plans to read this, I won’t reveal the author’s surprise suspect who he’s convinced is JTR. But, it’s the most preposterous theory based on wild suppositions and huge leaps in logic. His suspect is not only implausible, but truly impossible as JTR. I literally laughed out loud when the suspect was named. The overall theory is so ludicrous you may want to listen just to see what I mean. And for the author to boast that all other researchers have made mistakes and gotten it wrong while he has cleverly unveiled the real butcher is the biggest laugh of all.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
