Are there any Ripper books that are based around Francis Thomson as a suspect? Or any articles?

Best regards

It appears a new Ripper book is taking shape on Twitter. Check out JT Ribberie.

2 films about a book written on Francis Thompson being the Ripper.

Hey everyone. I’ve finished a making two short movies that are designed to increase awareness of my horror novel about how the English poet Francis Thompson was indeed Jack the Ripper. While Part 1 gives a fresh history of the Ripper murders, Part 2 details my suspect’s secret life and his motive. Although both films are scary, I hope you watch them both and enjoy learning about my book. Thanks.

Ripper Part 2

I have released my 2014 paperback horror novel on Amazon called, “Francis Thompson and the Ripper Paradox.” It’s about an actual homeless poet who turns out to be the devil. This novel is the first that introduces the English Catholic poet Francis Thompson (1859-1907) as a ripper suspect. The novel draws on copious factual material gathered from around the world research to explain how his rise began as the perpetrator of the cluster of 5 terrible murders of 1888 in London’s East End. This novel tells that Thompson sought to raise the dead and then stay alive after his own passing by hiding behind history and in our minds. The book is based on non-fiction works, including old press reports, police documents, letters, biographies, uncut-volumes, and historical artefacts and documents. It has been resourced from personal access to mostly archival material from places like London’s Guildhall Library, London’s National Gallery, The British Library, The Kew National Archives, (Dear Boss Letter) the New York Public Library, The Victorian State Library, Boston College’s Burns Library where are kept Thompson’s private notebooks for years, including 1888, and other unpublished documents pertaining to Thompson.The paperback that sells for $16.66:
