Jack & The Ripper examines the mindset of the anonymous Doctor T; orchestrator behind the Ripper murders. The incongruity of the disease that leads to his forthcoming fate and irony being that Doctor T's field of medicine as a surgeon of appendectomy torments him till the end of his life. For the seventy-year old master surgeon reflects vividly upon the past as his mind wanders back to Whitechapel and where it began. The story begins in 1887, with the ghastly murder of Miriam Angel at the hands of Israel Lipski. The possibility of a correlation betwixt her murder and that of the Ripper murders has never been fully established, so this is examined in brevity. In real life her distraught husband Isaac carried out a vicious assault upon his landlady, Leah Lipski, to which he was bound over to keep the peace for one year. However, with Lipski hanged at Newgate Prison, the likely-hood of Isaac going on a murder spree remains feasible, if to consider he had lost all will and was left with little to behold, except an act of vengeance, due to the betrayal of his God to protect his innocent, pregnant young wife. This heartbreaking narrative of what became of him remains a mystery as the chapter, The Shadwell Dock Fires implies. However, the bestial truth of the motives that lay behind the Ripper murders upon six prostitutes begin with Jack's nightmare scenario when he becomes a bird of prey and spots the gruesome attack upon ladybird, Martha Tabram. This leads to his own psychosis, which sets him off, only for his doctor and sole protector to embark on a cover-up to conceal his personal embarrassment. And as the plot thickens the doctor spins his own web of steel to protect, not only his patient, but his reinvented medieval society, to which a certain sacrifice is paramount to its endorsement from those at the very top of the tree.
