Only one man dares to confront the meaning behind the crimes. Only one man sees through the tangled skein to the truth. Only one man kws the answers. Or, at least, only one man thinks he kws the answers ... Follow Professor Wolf, the world's first Ripperologist, on his delusional journey into the world of the Ripper. Follow his long-suffering friend, Sir Arthur Smythe, who suspects that it will all end in tears. Gasp at the revelations. Tremble at the truth. Wonder at the sanity of a mind that leaps from conspiracy to conspiracy without ever touching reality.
Jon Hartless was born in the 1970s and has spent much of his life in the Midlands and Worcestershire. He is the author of three bleakly humorous science fiction books under his own name, and two even bleaker works under the pen name Barnabas Corbin. Rise of the Steampunk Empire will be published under the Barnabas Corbin name early in 2012.
