Richard Walters provided the haunting sound track I listened to while writing this book.
As much as I’ve enjoyed getting to know my shadow on the wall, the real-life Jack the Ripper killed at least five innocent women: Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly. I do not wish to minimize their lives or their tragic deaths in any way.
And, finally, many thanks for ever and always to my wonderful wife and son.
