Hello,
My new book 'The Thames Torso Murders Fact or Fiction?' is due to be published shortly. I've posted links below to the page and website which will update everyone on the publication progress. Please feel free to follow.
If you’re not familiar with the cases, a simple google of the phrase ‘Thames Torso Murders’ brings up a whole host of information and media, all of which vary considerably in their understanding and description of the subject matter. Many believe four cases of adult female dismemberment which occurred in London between 1887 and 1889 are the ‘Thames Torso Murders’ and that these cases are linked, resulting in a competing serial killer to the infamous Whitechapel murders of 1888. But there are others who see a case in Battersea in 1873, another in Tottenham Court Road in 1884 and in Salamanca Place in 1902 (amongst others) as also being linked and others still who believe the torso cases and the crimes of Jack the Ripper to be one and the same. Another school of thought posits that the death of Elizabeth Jackson in 1889 was the result of a poorly attempted abortion and wasn’t, in fact, a murder at all. The book aims to strip the subject right back to its core and investigates twelve cases of adult female dismemberment which occurred in London between 1873 and 1902. Is there evidence to suggest another serial killer was stalking the streets of London over a near thirty-year period or are the deaths stand alone killings or accidents? Hopefully my book will go someway to clarifying this question for you.
