The purpose of this book is not to support the theory of any given suspect who was claimed to be "Jack The Ripper" but to gauge if the murders were the work of a lone murderer or if they were committed by two or more persons acting together for a particular motive, ie a conspiracy. The story draws on over fifty years of studying the Whitechapel Murders, and makes extensive use of official documents, eyewitness testimony and police reports as well the extensive Newspaper reports of the time. The role politicians and senior police officials played is subject to particular scrutiny, as were the common threads that run throughout the Whitechapel Murders such as coincidence, contradictions and an abundance of missing and secrecy. Layer to these almost impossible timelines when measured against the status quo view of the murders, and what emerges is a completely different perspective of the murders.
