About This Item
Mysterious Press, 1987. mass market paperback. good. 234pp. "With the fascination of a true-life detective story set firmly in its historical context, this account of the Ratcliffe Highway murders describes a series of crimes that were to nineteenth-century London what the Jack the Ripper killings are to us today: the very symbol of murderous and unthinking brutality. [...] As the reader watches the rudimentary police system of Regency London coping with a major murder investigation, the Ratcliffe Highway Murders prove to be among the most interesting and mysterious in the English criminal calendar." #00585.
