Somebody's mother, somebody's daughter : true stories from victims and survivors of the Yorkshire Ripper

Books, Manuscripts
Much has been written about the brutal crimes of Peter Sutcliffe, the Yorkshire Ripper. During the four decades of his imprisonment for the murder of thirteen women - before his death in November 2020 - scarcely a week went by without some mention of him in the British media. In any story featuring Sutcliffe, however, his victims are incidental, often reduced to a tableau of nameless faces. But each woman was much more than the manner of her death. Based on previously unpublished material and fresh, first-hand interviews, this book examines the Yorkshire Ripper story from a new perspective: focusing on the women and putting the reader in a similar position to those who lived through that time.
