        My collection needs to grow, slowly but surely. When can I expect my complementary copy?

            Review

            'An in-depth overview of the Ripper murders investigation … In going the 'extra yard' with his research Neil Bell has made many new discoveries along the way. His knowledge of the Victorian police forces is unparalleled in the field and he is a recognised authority on his subject … This is a must-have book for all Ripperologists, as well as the interested reader of the genre.'

            --Stewart P. Evans, author of The Ultimate Jack the Ripper Sourcebook

              Sorry Neil, I couldn't access Stewart's comments from that link, although I could access a double deal linking your book with Russell Edwards' effort...You've got to be so proud...

              All the best

                Here's the page I get when I search for "Capturing Jack the Ripper" on Amazon's UK page
                http://www.amazon.co.uk/Capturing-Ja...4256139&sr=8-1
                These are not clues, Fred.
                It is not yarn leading us to the dark heart of this place.
                They are half-glimpsed imaginings, tangle of shadows.
                And you and I floundering at them in the ever vainer hope that we might corral them into meaning when we will not.
                We will not.

                  Thanks Ozzy

                  The original link is now working too...maybe the site was temporarily glitched or my browser...

                    Neil Bell speaking at the 2015 Jack the Ripper Conference

                    We are proud to announce the next speaker in our line up for the 2015 Jack the Ripper Conference in Nottingham.

                    Neil Bell will be presenting his talk "A Policeman's Lot"; work the beat with Neil, as he takes us out into the dark streets of Whitechapel to show what life was like for a constable in H Division.

                    If you can't wait until next August to hear Neil speak, his first book will be published at the end of November. This will possibly be the must have Ripper book of the year: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1445621622

                    All the best

                      Wouldn't 'Failing to Capture Jack the Ripper' be a more appropriate (if less marketable) book title?

                        Depends on your definition of 'Capturing' Harry.

                          I would wager that title wasn't Neil's idea.

                          Yours truly,

                                Oh no. That's terrible luck. Poor Russell
