Synopsis: |
Between August and November 1888, at least seven women were murdered in Whitechapel. The gruesome nature of their deaths caused panic and fear in the East End and gave rise to the enduring mystery of Jack the Ripper. For over a hundred years the murders have remained one of the world's greatest unsolved crimes, but using her formidable range of forensic and technical skills, Patricia Cornwell presents the evidence that the perpetrator of the murders was the world famous artist, Walter Sickert. |
