THE MULTI AWARD-WINNING #1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'Gripping' NEW YORK TIMES 'At last, the Ripper's victims get a voice... An eloquent, stirring challenge to reject the prevailing Ripper myth' MAIL ON SUNDAY ____________ Polly, Annie, Elizabeth, Catherine and Mary-Jane are famous for the same thing, though they never met. They came from Fleet Street, Knightsbridge, Wolverhampton, Sweden and Wales. They wrote ballads, ran coffee houses, lived on country estates, they breathed ink-dust from printing presses and escaped people-traffickers. What they had in common was the year of their murders: 1888. Their murderer was never identified, but the name created for him by the press has become far more famous than any of these five women. Now, in this devastating narrative of five lives, historian Hallie Rubenhold finally sets the record straight, and gives these women back their stories. ____________ Awards for The Five include: - Winner of the BAILLIE GIFFORD PRIZE for Non-fiction - HAY FESTIVAL Book of the Year 2019 - Winner of the Goodreads Choice Awards for History PRAISE FOR THE FIVE 'Devastatingly good. The Five will leave you in tears, of pity and of rage.' LUCY WORSLEY 'Fascinating, compelling, moving.' BRIDGET COLLINS, author of The Binding 'An angry and important work of historical detection, calling time on the misogyny that has fed the Ripper myth. Powerful and shaming.' GUARDIAN 'Haunting' SUNDAY TIMES 'What a brilliant and necessary book' JO BAKER, author of Longbourn 'Beautifully written and with the grip of a thriller, it will open your eyes and break your heart.' ERIN KELLY 'An outstanding work of history-from-below ... magnificent' SPECTATOR 'Deeply researched' THE NEW YORKER

This book wasn�t what I thought it would be. I am not really sure what I thought it would be. 🤷����. It was very slow to me. Some parts were interesting and then others I struggled to get through. I am not sure that I would recommend this book.
