About the book >.>.> Between 1959 and 1965 eight prostitutes were found naked and dead in west London. The ‘nude’ murders as they became known were the most notorious unsolved crimes since Jack the Ripper – and just as bizarre… “A brutal breathless ride… He has revisited the crime scenes digested the post mortem reports and analysed hundreds of witness statements to piece together the last days of the doomed street-walkers… you’re in for a treat’ Sunday Telegraph Seabrook’s crazed A-Z of the city turns him into a low-life Borges charting the impenetrable riddles of human behaviour in a London that feels as foreign and surreal and as remote as Buenos Aires’ Guardian Jack of Jumps is almost gothic in its ambitions… Like the unreal city of Nicolas Roeg and Donald Camell’s 1970 film Performance Seabrook’s is a city of mirrors and the truth about the murders remains hidden in plain view: London kills’ Scotland on Sunday
