They came from Fleet Street, Knightsbridge, Wolverhampton, Sweden and Wales. They wrote ballads, ran coffee houses, lived on country estates, they breathed ink dust from printing presses and escaped people traffickers. What they had in common was the year of their murders, 1888. Their murderer was never identified, but the name created for him by the press has become far more famous than any of these five women. Now in this devastating narrative of five lives, historian Hallie Rubenhold finally sets the record straight, and gives these women back their stories. A very scarce book.
