I actually found this quite an interesting read. John Morris presents an interesting argument about who he thinks Jack the Ripper is and does show some interesting reasons whyshe might be the killer.

He takes one of the occasional suspects, Sir John Williams and points out that while he's not a good suspect, his wife, Mary Elizabeth Ann Williams is. That there is no reason to suspect a woman wouldn't kill and that in fact there have been a few women who have cut other women up, and that Lizzie Williams may have been distressed by her and her husband's inability to have children.

It's an interesting read, the details are not for the squeamish.

Not for the feint hearts, the account of their joint investigation covers all five murders in medically graphic detail - but in a book about the Ripper murders, I suppose this is unavoidable.
