Narrado por: Virtual Voice

He's been called a sailor, a doctor, a butcher, and a prince – yet no one truly knows. For more than a century, Jack the Ripper has been a blank canvas for countless theories, obscuring the facts behind myths, lies and half-truths. In Murder Tales: Jack the Ripper, crime historian H. N. Lloyd cuts through the fog to reveal what really happened in London’s Whitechapel. With his signature dry wit and meticulous research, Lloyd re-examines the evidence for a “medical” Ripper, dissects eyewitness testimonies, and exposes where the police investigation succeeded and failed. He also explores the public's obsession – from Victorian newspaper coverage to modern-day “Ripperologists” – and unpacks the most compelling suspects and bizarre theories that have captivated imaginations for over a century. Whether you’re a longtime aficionado or a newcomer to the case, this book offers a fresh, riveting look at history’s most notorious killer.
