The Ripper's Wife by Brandy Purdy

[shellym]

Hello,
My name is Shelly. I am brand new to the world of Jack the Ripper and eager to learn more. I just read a novel called The Ripper's Wife by Brandy Purdy I know it's a work of fiction, the author makes that clear in a note at the start and also in her interviews, but it really got me curious. I went online right away and bought Donald Rumbelow's book because I read in an interview with the author that was the book that started her fascination with the subject.

G'day Shelly

Welcome to casebook, I've never read "The Rippers Wife" so really can't comment. This s great place but can at times get a bit heated, some poeple can take it a bit personal if you disagree with their pet theory.

Welcome..

Hi Shelly,

Welcome to the mad house! Haven't heard of that book, but there are lots of good Ripper reads available.

Read as much as you can, with an open mind, and then don't be afraid to post your favourite theory on here for discussion.
After all, it's a very old unsolved case so new blood & fresh ideas inject new perspectives in to reoccurring themes.

Enjoy,
Amanda

"New blood" was never in short supply when Jack was at work.

Think that's the third time you've made me splutter coffee up my ipad Gut!

Never did get to Toynbee Street to look for a new one...
