ReviewsA masterpiece that reads like a thriller. " Time Out There is unlikely to be a more cmprehensive or carefully researched account of the case. To read Wicked Beyond Belief " is to have a sense of being physically present at the day-to-day investigation, experiencing the frustrations, the stress and the public outrage at its lack of success as the years passed and murder followed. " P.D.James, Mail on Sunday Bilton knows more about the Ripper case than anyone living. " Blake Morrison, Guardian
