The Whitechapel Murders of 1888 have remained unsolved for over 130 years and hundreds of theories have been suggested as to the killer's identity.

This audiobook will explore how the mind of serial killers work, different types of kidnapping, and what to do when your loved one is missing. The author will also discuss what you should know about a kidnapper's motives and methods.
