Portrait of a Killer: Jack the Ripper -- Case Closed
reviewed on + 11 more book reviews


Patricia Cornwell certainly knows how to track down facts. She put in untold amounts of research, time and her own money to prove/disprove the guilt of the individual she feels IS Jack The Ripper.

I am a huge Cornwell fan, but did not enjoy this book. I would much rather spend my time reading her fiction works.

If you enjoy any type of historical non-fiction, you should enjoy this. For me, however, I'll stick with non-fiction.
