I have never heard anything about the women killed by jack the ripper before this book. It was very well informed and I’m so glad I read it. As the author said, it is important to remember these women as human beings and not just victims of a famous man.

Un libro difícil de digerir. Pero era exactamente lo que buscaba de un libro así, incluso diría que más ya que se preocupa no solo de contarte lo que se sabe de la vida de estas mujeres sino que se preocupa de darte el contexto de por qué sus vidas fueron lo que fueron.
