Über diesen Titel
Not a solution. A diagnosis.
The Whitechapel murders of 1888 were once recorded in precise detail—five women, five names, five crime scenes. But over the decades, the facts have been buried by theory, distortion, and narrative excess.
What followed wasn’t justice. It was noise.
Ripperology began with real investigation. It devolved into a kind of open casting call—a parade of improbable suspects, each auditioning for the part of the killer.
Jack of All Trades applies such flawed reasoning to a parade of suspects—Queen Victoria, Arthur Conan Doyle, Florence Nightingale, Vincent van Gogh, even Adolf Hitler—showing how far the practice can be pushed. With enough framing, anyone can be made to fit the role.
The historical details are all real. Only the conclusions are absurd.
Measured, meticulous, and quietly unsettling, Jack of All Trades isn’t about revealing who Jack the Ripper was. It’s about exposing an industry that keeps pretending someone can.
