Sinopsis

‘You’ve got Jack the Ripper at last!’ was the phrase with which former Chief Inspector Abberline supposedly congratulated Inspector Godley when George Chapman was arrested in 1902. Fourteen years previously, the two detectives had hunted the perpetrator of the Whitechapel Murders, but had failed to catch him. Abberline claimed that, for ‘a score of reasons’, he suspected Chapman. Between 1897 and 1902 Chapman killed three successive girlfriends, using the drawn-out and agonising method of slow poisoning. His arrest and trial attracted enormous publicity and made headline news across the English-speaking world. He was hanged for his terrible crimes. But did Chapman take a terrible secret with him to the grave? Was he also responsible for the gruesome slayings perpetrated by Jack the Ripper?
