In the book, "Jack The Ripper: The Inquest Of The Final Victim Mary Kelly", Mr. Smithkey does not fall into the trap of playing the "name a suspect" game in his book. Smithkey centers on one aspect of the Ripper case, the murder of Mary Kelly. The book does contain a short history of the murders of Jack the Ripper, but he quickly takes the readers into the mysteries that surround the murder of Mary Kelly. Smithkey's book is the first book about Jack The Ripper that includes the complete facsimile of the coroner's inquest. A facsimile of te witness statements are also included. An easy to read transcript is also included in the book. The photo section of the book contains all new photos of the crime scenes taken by Smithkey during his London trip to research the area. Noted author Stewart Evans also gave Smithkey some photos taken in 1967. The reader can easily compare how the murder sites have change through the years. Smithkey's book is not "just another Ripper book", but it is a valuable book that can be used by the beginning true crime fan as well as a research tool for the seasoned "ripperologist"! Mr. Smithkey is also available for book signings, lectures, and slide presentations about not only the mystery of Jack the Ripper, but Sherlock Holmes of London as well.
I hope true crime and mystery readers enjoy my book on the Jack the Ripper case. I centered my study on the murder of Mary Kelly as I discovered that certain facts about the case related to Mary Kelly just didn't "add up"! The mystery of Jack the Ripper remains one of the most popular true crimes mysteries. I hope my research has helped in providing some answers into this mystery.
