A young American woman, Florence Maybrick, was found guilty of killing her much older husband, James Maybrick, by poisoning him with arsenic extracted from flypapers. It was a story that had everything: sex, drugs and adultery. Queen Victoria and three American presidents were to be caught up in the drama. Florence was to spend fifteen years in prison for the crime, but did she really murder her husband In 1992, the story took a new and even more dramatic twist. A diary was found, allegedly written by James Maybrick, in which he supposedly confessed to being the world's most notorious serial killer, Jack the Ripper. The diary has proved to be one of the most controversial historical documents of all time. To some, the diary is a true account, a window into the mind of the killer. To others, it is an obvious and transparent hoax.In 2022, the authors of this book published their award-winning book into the Maybrick murder case and the Diary of Jack the Ripper.
