He is a fully qualified London Blue Badge Tourist Guide, is Member of the prestigious Magic Circle, and was the originator of the acclaimed Jack the Ripper Tour, the London Ghost Walk and Charles Dickens London tours. Whilst the book is a wonderful introduction for anyone interested in learning about the Ripper case, it doesn't come without its drawbacks, the most prominent of which for me was the number of spelling and grammar issues dotted throughout.
