In 1888 London was the largest city in the world. A bustling metropolis with smog, docks and factories which saw a recent invasion of immigrants into the east end of the city. That autumn a series of unprecedented murders took place in the Whitechapel district.

The area was a notorious ghetto where the lives of it’s inhabitants were subject to the everyday hardships that poverty brings. Prostitution and alcoholism were rife and violence was a daily burden most faced with as much dignity as was possible. But on 31 August with the discovery of the brutal murder of a prostitute in the small hours of the morning, a mystery was born that was to baffle the police to the point of frustration.
