About this listen
Come into the East End of London, England, 1888.
Walk the streets of Whitechapel and slums of Spitalfields, side by side with history's most notorious serial killer.
Overhear his plans, and listen - or try not to - to his secret thoughts as he waits in the shadows. Keep pace, if you have the nerve, as he stalks his victims.
Watch, if you have the stomach, as he commits his outrages. And run with him, if you're still upright, as he escapes the swarming forces of police desperate for his hide and head.
Imagining the unimaginable in this unabashed novel of terror, award-winning author Doug Lamoreux takes you inside the mind of the infamous killer who was never caught.
Discover the Whitechapel murders...as told by Jack the Ripper himself.

By two thirds in I was wishing he’d hurry up and finish.
Great book. Appalling narration.
Book is very good but worst narration ever

Worse still, the narrator Steve Hart’s attempts fall so far short as to make me believe that the infamous Jack the Ripper was from Australia which trust me is a long way from Whitechapel London, and for the persona of Jack so steeped in history the characterisation must be at the very least British, as legend suggests,
The Aussie accent spills over all the characters from the prostitutes to the police officers ruining the whole balance of the book, and as such has no place in a story that is depicting London’s darker underside at a very well recorded time in history and I suggest is best left told by a London accent, and one capable of getting the Cockney accent correct, which is not easy.
Sorry but for me it destroyed what is essentially a good book that appears to have been quite well researched leaving the reader, or listener in this case in no doubt what a sick chap Jack really was. Graphic in the extreme, gory and violent all let down by an accent acquired from watching Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins, rather than the UK soap East Enders which is quintessentially London. I prefer to have my characterisations relevant to the story, and if it must be by a non national at least make sure that the accent is plausible, which in this case the narrator misses completely, spoiling what potentially could have been very good.
Shock Horror Jacks an Aussie?!
