Publisher's Summary
An investigation into the man Scotland Yard thought (but couldn't prove) was Jack the Ripper....
Dozens of theories have attempted to resolve the mystery of the identity of Jack the Ripper, the world's most famous serial killer. Ripperologist Robert House contends that we may have known the answer all along. The head of Scotland Yard's Criminal Investigation Department at the time of the murders thought Aaron Kozminski was guilty, but he lacked the legal proof to convict him. By exploring Kozminski's life, House builds a strong circumstantial case against him, showing not only that he had means, motive, and opportunity, but also that he fit the general profile of a serial killer as defined by the FBI today. This book:
- Is the first to explore the life of Aaron Kozminski, one of Scotland Yard's top suspects in the quest to identify Jack the Ripper
- Combines historical research and contemporary criminal profiling techniques to solve one of the most vexing criminal mysteries of all time
- Draws on a decade of research by the author, including trips to Poland and England to uncover Kozminski's past and details of the case
- Includes a foreword by Roy Hazelwood, a former FBI profiler and pioneer of profiling sexual predators
- Features a PDF containing dozens of photographs and illustrations
Building a thorough and convincing case that completes the work begun by Scotland Yard more than a century ago, this book is essential listening for anyone who wants to know who really committed Jack the Ripper's heinous and unforgettable crimes.

Be prepared for a lot of background
The author makes it clear at the start that the suspect being looked at (kozminski) is very opaque and so he instead gives us a lot of background. There's much about polish Jewish immigration and life in Whitechapel. He goes through the crimes and investigations and later analyses whether the suspect fits the profile.
By the end I was a little unconvinced as to whether kozminski really was the ripper but the case was well made. I found the most valuable part of this was all the background into the world in which this case unfolded.

Brilliant! Best JtR 'suspect' book ever!
The strongest case for Kosminski's candidacy for being Jack the Ripper is made in this exceptionally well written and researched (audio) book.
The information and descriptions of life in Poland and London is top notch.
Very well presented argument drawing together the City Police 'stake' out stories and the Crawford letter present a compelling case for Aaron not only being 'the Kosminski suspect' but opens up the idea he was suspected as early as 1888.
Great narration too. Very engaging and brought all the characters to life.
Highly recommended purchase.
