Jackie the Ripper

by Stak

The infamous Whitechapel murders, retold. Everyone knows the story of Jack the Ripper, the chilling serial killer that haunted the streets of 19th century London. Now, 135 years later, there’s a new killer in town. In this darkly comic reimagining, men are the victims of sexually aggressive murders committed by a woman: the mysterious Jackie. The only obstacle standing in her way? The slightly clueless, extremely over-caffeinated Detective Abberline and his not-so-crack team at the City of London Police. This is a laugh-out-loud, gruesome, thrilling comedy drama that will have you in bits – and might take your bits too.
