Advance Praise

Praise and Reviews for Letters From a Murderer:

“If you’re interested in historical crime, whether fact or fiction, then John Matthews has produced a book with a fantastic conceit. The Jack the Ripper case was never solved. The murders of prostitutes in Victorian London’s East End just stopped and many thought that either the Ripper’s mania had left him, or he was dead. But what if he left the country? And what if he started again?”
- Crime Fiction Lover

Letters From a Murderer was a compelling read with two fabulous lead investigators, who I hope we’ll get to see much more of in the future. Matthews tells a great story laced with pathos and unexpected twists, which I just couldn’t put down. It was an exciting and gripping narrative, which elaborates on the Jack the Ripper mystery in a novel way. If you enjoy historical crime fiction, this is the book to put on your Christmas wish list this year.”
- A Fantastical Librarian

“A thrilling tale of murder, corruption and trust, Letters From a Murderer is an exciting and captivating read and entirely unputdownable.”
