| Portrait of a Killer Jack the Ripper -- Case Closed - Patricia Cornwell |
The number-one New York Times -bestselling novelist Patricia
Cornwell is known the world over for her brilliant storytelling, the courage of
her characters, and the state-of-the-art forensic methods they employ. In this
headline-making new work of nonfiction, Cornwell turns her trademark skills for
meticulous research and scientific expertise on one of the most chilling cases
of serial murder in the history of crime-the slayings of Jack the Ripper that
terrorized 1880s London. With the masterful intuition into the criminal mind
that has informed her novels, Cornwell digs deeper into the case than any
detective before her-and reveals the true identity of this elusive madman.
Enlisting the help of forensic experts, Cornwell examines all the physical evidence
available: thousands of documents and reports, fingerprints, crime-scene
photographs, original etchings and paintings, items of clothing, artists'
paraphernalia, and traces of DNA. Her unavoidable conclusion: Jack the Ripper
was none other than a respected painter of his day, an artist now collected by
some of the world's finest museums.
