The Extraordinary Life of Florence Maybrick, the Wife of Jack the Ripper.
August 1889. Twenty-seven-year-old Florence Maybrick is sentenced to death for poisoning her husband, Liverpool cotton broker James Maybrick, in one of the most infamous trials in British legal history. But what was the truth behind Maybrick's death? And how was it connected to a spate of terrible murders in London's East End?
Florence's turbulent life - her marriage to a man widely believed to be the most notorious serial killer of all time, her sensational trial and imprisonment - is the stuff of high drama. Revealing startling new evidence that puts a dramatic twist on Maybrick's death, 'The Last Victim' is a fascinating historical re-evaluation of one of the most extraordinary true crime puzzles of all time.
