Publisher's Synopsis
The girl writhed on the shore like a dying fish. He tore off the black feather and stuffed it into her ears. The stupid little slut should have listened to the crow. he thought... In 1888, five prostitutes died one after another on the dank cobblestone road of Whitechapel. They were all cut and disembowelled, and the local women were shrouded in the bloody smell and death shadow of the slaughterhouse. Frida, a girl from Sweden who came to London as a servant, witnessed all this, and her best friend also died tragically in the dark night. At this time, the murderer published a manifesto for the massacre of prostitutes in a newspaper, signed by Jack the Ripper.
