Naming Jack the Ripper by Russell Edwards | Goodreads

Russell Edwards' proclamation that he has “incontrovertible proof, the kind of proof that would stand up to any cross-examination in a courtroom today" of the Ripper's identity simply doesn't stand up to scrutiny. This evidence is from one of the crime scenes, and has now been rigorously examined by some of the most highly-qualified forensic scientists in the country who have ascertained its true provenance.

Combining crime investigation techniques with artistic analysis, Cornwell constructs a compelling case that Sickert may have been the face behind the infamous Ripper. In recent years, the graves that were here have been cleared away, and the area in general is now awaiting redevelopment. The story of Jack the Ripper continues to fascinate and intrigue readers, captivating their imaginations as they explore the dark streets of Victorian London, chasing the elusive killer.
