THE MULTI AWARD-WINNING NUMBER ONE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER A TIMES Top Ten Best True Crime book: 'Groundbreaking. Extraordinary' 'Terrific' Ian Rankin 'Gripping' NEW YORK TIMES 'At last, the Ripper's victims get a voice... An eloquent, stirring challenge to reject the prevailing Ripper myth' MAIL ON SUNDAY WINNER OF THE BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION ____________ Polly, Annie, Elizabeth, Catherine and Mary-Jane are famous for the same thing, though they never met. They came from Fleet Street, Knightsbridge, Wolverhampton, Sweden and Wales. They wrote ballads, ran coffee houses, lived on country estates, they breathed ink-dust from printing presses and escaped people-traffickers. What they had in common was the year of their murders: 1888. Their murderer was never identified, but the name created for him by the press has become far more famous than any of these five women. Now, in this devastating narrative of five lives, historian Hallie Rubenhold finally sets the record straight, and gives these women back their stories. ____________ PRAISE FOR THE FIVE 'Devastatingly good. The Five will leave you in tears, of pity and of rage.' LUCY WORSLEY 'Fascinating, compelling, moving.' BRIDGET COLLINS, author of The Binding 'An angry and important work of historical detection, calling time on the misogyny that has fed the Ripper myth. Powerful and shaming.' GUARDIAN 'Haunting' SUNDAY TIMES 'What a brilliant and necessary book' JO BAKER, author of Longbourn 'Beautifully written and with the grip of a thriller, it will open your eyes and break your heart.' ERIN KELLY 'An outstanding work of history-from-below ... magnificent' SPECTATOR 'Deeply researched' THE NEW YORKER **NOW BUY THE BRAND NEW WORK BY HALLIE RUBENHOLD: STORY OF A MURDER
