Book Synopsis: Debates have long raged about Jack the  Ripper's identity, but what about the  identity of his victims? A social historian and historical fiction writer, Rubenhold reveals that they were not prostitutes, as we've always been told, but women going about their business—one ran a coffeehouse, another worked at a printing press, yet another lived on a country estate—who sadly crossed paths with a killer. (Library Journal)
