From the cover - Who was Jack the Ripper? Was it the Duke of Clarence? A doctor with a perverse specialty in anatomy? A policeman? Ever since the infamous Ripper terrorized the prostitutes of Victorian London, the murderer's identity has remained a mystery. In his chilling, suspenseful new novel, master of the macabre Robert Bloch proposes a brand-new solution, as shocking and ingenious as the conclusion of his classic 'Psycho'.
