"It's me, love ... I'm The Yorkshire Ripper." When Peter Sutcliffe
spoke those words to his wife Sonia following his arrest in 1981,
it marked the end of a killing spree which had terrorised northern
England for five years. The nation had been appalled yet gripped by
the Ripper and was now fascinated by the man behind the headlines.
But despite millions of words being written about the case since
his arrest 40 years ago, the full Peter Sutcliffe story has never
been told - until now. Based on a vast quantity of raw material
collected from Sutcliffe himself over a period of 16 years, 'I'm
the Yorkshire Ripper' is the compelling account of the most
terrifying series of murders in British history - much of it in the
killer's own words. The book covers all aspects of his life in
intimate detail never publicly revealed before including: * His
relationship with his neglectful, violent father and his loving,
devoted mother * The night when he first met his future wife Sonia
* The defining moment in his life in Bingley cemetery when, while
working as a grave digger, he claimed to have first heard the
voices which would later tell him to kill * The incredible moment
when, while on a shopping trip, he walked past a woman who had
survived one of his attacks * His arrest, trial and detention and
his time in Broadmoor, including how he once tried to escape with
the help of one of the Kray twins * His reaction to the theories of
why he became a serial killer - and his own theory
