In 1888, the most infamous serial killer of our age appeared, Jack
the Ripper. He accumulated his list of unfortunate victims, and
then vanished without a trace. He alluded capture, taunted
authorities and was never identified - until twenty years later, by
the man who had hunted him, London police detective Frederick
Abbeline. Long after the Ripper disappeared, Abbeline found the
answer to his identity, and revealed it only to one person; a young
reporter, Thomas Palmer. "26 High Street" is a readers' theatre
play of mystery and intrigue, culminating in the moment that
Abbeline passes the torch to the intrepid newsman. Chapters include
the author's reflections on readers' theatre presentation, and the
subject of Jack the Ripper as a literary metaphor, not just a
documentary figure - plus a brief primer of the Ripper's factual
history.
