When he prematurely retired in 1913 due to illness, Melville Macnaghten claimed to journalists that he knew the exact identity of Jack the Ripper, the nickname of the unknown serial killer of poor prostitutes in London's impoverished East End during the late Victorian era. The police chief called the killer "that remarkable man", but refused to name him or divulge details that might identify him.

Macnaghten was actively involved in the investigation of the murders of Whitechapel prostitutes between 1889 and 1891. Crimes that were initially believed by some at Scotland Yard, and certainly by the tabloid press, to be by the same perpetrator.

A fictionalized Melville Macnaghten is prominently featured in The Ripper Lives as he and Inspector Frederick Abberline follow the Ripper's trail.

ABOUT THE RIPPER LIVES: JACK THE RIPPER'S REIGN OF TERROR CONTINUES The world’s most elusive and terrifying serial killer returns in the 10-part Victorian gothic murder mystery series, The Ripper Lives. Dripping with 19th-century atmosphere and intrigue, each thrilling, suspense-filled chapter ends with a shocking cliffhanger that compels the reader forward. The fear builds as the historical horror story unfolds, culminating in an explosive, mind-bending conclusion.

The Ripper Lives is a sequel to the true story that commences after the slayings of the Canonical Five. As a secretly appointed task force works to bring the butcher to justice under the radar of the newspapers, the unsuspecting public believes the threat has subsided. But while hiding in the shadows, the serial killer's compulsion to mutilate has grown exponentially stronger, and for Whitechapel, the harrowing nightmare of tension and terror has only just begun.

I've noticed there aren't many gifs out there from the last season so here I go. I've just watched The Dying Detective today and I really liked Jeremy in it. He's amazing.

The Ripper Lives: Jack the Ripper Series I - Psycho (5/10) is available exclusively on Amazon. The entire series is Free on Kindle Unlimited.

A STARTLING DISCOVERY POINTS TO GUILT ... BUT OF WHAT?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CRQ38QFY "The feeling lingered all the way to the landing, increasingly unkempt, slowly dialling up the mustiness of the odour. It wasn't blood - closer to dried salts, with a subtle edge of wax and pine. I glanced around and found my answer ... The entryway had been sealed, lined with what appeared to be some sort of gauze, mixed with adhesive glue and applied to the entire outer frame. It was stiff, now cracked and crumbling where Mcnaughten had forced his way in and QUICKLY BEEN MET WITH REGRET." In the dramatic mid-series finale, a shocking find incriminates a suspect. But clashing factions once again hinder the investigation, leaving many questions unanswered. "I went to the window and tore away some of the sheets of newspapers for light ... AND MY EYES FELL ON IT." Episode 5: PSYCHO As a serial killer runs free and the body count grows, Abberline and company race against a ticking timebomb. Working the beat between glory and disgrace, they close in on the Ripper while fending off aggressive competing forces.

[edwinisms]

it’s kinda funny to me that charles seems like this classic brit punk rocker and looking at him makes you think of like. the clash. sex pistols. etc. but really according to his pins and the time period he died in he was probably most frequently listening to fucking. ska
