Join author Suzanne Huntington at Newport Community Library to unravel the mystery of The Thames Torso Murders...
About this Event

The latter part of the Victorian era bore witness to a series of unexplained female dismemberment cases that plagued London for a period of thirty years. All the cases remain unsolved and only two women were ever identified. Today, the circumstances surrounding these deaths have largely become a footnote in history, dwarfed in attention by their much larger cousin, Jack the Ripper.

Suzanne Huntington’s groundbreaking exploration of the subject is the first in-depth analysis of all the cases, and strips back 150 years of misinformation.

Join her as we discover a world not yet able to comprehend the concept of serial M**der and where forensics and crime scene investigation were in their infancy.
