This issue we reach part 6 of Matthew Spicer’s ground-breaking Whitechapel Murders casebook, with perhaps the most shocking case so far. The brutal evisceration of Catherine Eddowes would have been horrifying enough on its own, but the fact that it was the second attack in one night by the man soon to be known as Jack the Ripper made it seem far, far worse.

We’ve two modern serial killer sagas for you this month too. From the USA comes the lengthy killing history of Joel Rifkin, who to this day remains a suspect in numerous unsolved murders. Then there’s the equally ghastly tale of Donato Bilancia, thought to be Italy’s most prolific serial killer.

And that’s just the tip of this issue’s iceberg-sized helping of must-read crime stories, all of them true...
