    Sounds like it's still in your cache. I think a hard delete or cache clearing and download again is how I solve these on my mine. Also update Kindle.

    This is the first time that I’ve ever bought a book on Kindle and it appears to have been successful. Copyright 2013/2018. I think this is the correct book?

    Thanks, Paul. Although the Kindle preview has the 2013/2018 date, the version I have just bought, on Kindle for the fourth time is still the 2017 edition.

    I've also checked that automatic updates is turned on as Trevor said in his initial post that any old Kindle editions would be automatically updated. I haven't been able to buy a new version or update the old version it keeps sending me.

    Anyone else had success with Kindle yet?

    I cannot give you any Kindle locations, Debs, but the updated edition should have c. 2013/2018 on the copyright page. The previous Kindle edition has c.2013/2017. The new edition also has some stuff about a knife and Gladstone bag - both are pictured about the middle of chapter four - that Patricia and I and the lovely Prof Turi King went to see. For some reason it was supposed to have belonged to Sickert, though there was nothing to show that it had. Patricia and I felt that it was probably a wild goose chase, but were aware of the criticism that would come her way if she didn't at least get it checked out. Turi was the best and very professional, but both bag and knife would have been too contaminated to make DNA testing worthwhile. If you can find something about that in chapter 4, you have the new edition.

    Apparently there should also be details of a new ID of MJK in the new book. In the old version it talks about Alice Carroll. There was no new ID mentioned in the Mary Kelly chapter the three times I bought and returned the book, nor anything about a new suspect for her murder.

    Thats why I am assuming there is a problem at Amazon.

    In which case, its hard to tell if the book as updated.

    maybe Trevor could give a line or two in the update that are not in the old version, so we can check.

    Amazon have not listed it has having an update availble on the contents and devices page.

    I assume it will get sorted out eventually.

    I assume there should be this new photo, that is mentioned above.
    The copyright notice still says 2017.
    so its hard to tell if there is any update or not, but it appears not.

    Hi Steve,
    I'd be interested if you manage to get an updated version of this on Kindle. I've tried and failed three times now to get the updated version. I have bought and then sent back three of the old versions since yesterday. Trevor suggested deleting my copy off Kindle and downloading again but I don't have a version to delete. I just keep re-buying it. Has anyone else managed to buy the revised Kindle version yet? Any help appreciated.
