All the hallmarks of his infamous murders are frighteningly present, but there are few clues to the killer?s identity. ?Rippermania? grabs hold of modern-day London, and the police are stumped with few leads and no witnesses. Except one. In an unknown city with few friends to turn to, Rory makes a chilling discovery? Could the copycat murderer really be Jack the Ripper back from the grave?
