Synopsis
A #1 Wall Street Journal bestseller. From New York Times bestselling author Patricia Cornwell comes Ripper: The Secret Life of Walter Sickert , a comprehensive and intriguing exposé of one of the world's most chilling cases of serial murder--and the police force that failed to solve it. Vain and charismatic Walter Sickert made a name for himself as a painter in Victorian London. But the ghoulish nature of his art--as well as extensive evidence--points to another name, one that's left its bloody mark on the pages of history: Jack the Ripper. Cornwell has collected never-before-seen archival material--including a rare mortuary photo, personal correspondence and a will with a mysterious autopsy clause--and applied cutting-edge forensic science to open an old crime to new scrutiny. Incorporating material from Portrait of a Killer: Jack the Ripper--Case Closed , this new edition has been revised and expanded to include eight new chapters, detailed maps and hundreds of images that bring the sinister case to life.

    Wow! The book was listed as "like new," but was actually still in the original shrink wrap! And it was a hardcover copy! I also appreciate that the seller took the time to communicate with me prior to purchase. Twice before I bought this book with "CD included," but then the book arrived without it! Finally, I own a not only complete, but also beautiful copy! Moreover, the price was amazing and the shipping was fast! Thank you!! I could not be happier!

    Quick and easy purchase for a great price! Really appreciate the generosity and thoughtfulness. The books came in a bit damaged, so I messaged and suggested additional packaging next time. The seller quickly gave me a partial refund and will make changes in the future! Great seller :) thanks!

    I am ALMOST convinced that Sickert was "Jack"!

    Good read! I enjoyed this book immensely. First, its very "readable". Not like a textbook eventhough it is full of facts and info. I felt she did as well as anyone could to bring the crime scenes back to "life" for review. She researched all the info very well and I followed up on several things she gave as references and was impressed with her "detective" work. A real quality read.

    I love this book. I always enjoy the hard cover better than the paper backs.

    I read Patricia's first book on the Ripper and never wanted to sit it down, I was sorry the book ending. Full of facts and very interesting. Her second book is just the same, if not better. I absolutely enjoyed reading both books on the Ripper!
