Wicked Beyond Belief by Michael Bilton
The Hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper
A forensic, often damning account of the hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper that chronicles the brutal murders of women across northern England, the climate of terror they provoked, and the mounting failures of the police investigation—missteps, misidentifications, institutional sexism and the infamous Wearside Jack hoax—that repeatedly diverted resources and delayed justice, while detailing the impact on victims’ families, the press scrutiny and public anxiety, and the eventual arrest and conviction that brought a troubled inquiry to account.
