Portrait
of a Killer: Jack the Ripper -- Case Closed
by Patricia Cornwell
Book Description: The number-one New York Times-bestselling novelist
Patricia Cornwell is known the world over for her brilliant storytelling,
the courage of her characters, and the state-of-the-art forensic methods
they employ.
In this headline-making new work of nonfiction, Cornwell turns her trademark
skills for meticulous research and scientific expertise on one of the most
chilling cases of serial murder in the history of crime-the slayings of
Jack the Ripper that terrorized 1880s London. With the masterful intuition
into the criminal mind that has informed her novels, Cornwell digs deeper
into the case than any detective before her-and reveals the true identity
of this elusive madman.
Enlisting the help of forensic experts, Cornwell examines all the physical
evidence available: thousands of documents and reports, fingerprints, crime-scene
photographs, original etchings and paintings, items of clothing, artists'
paraphernalia, and traces of DNA. Her unavoidable conclusion: Jack the
Ripper was none other than a respected painter of his day, an artist now
collected by some of the world's finest museums.
