Between 1959 and 1965, eight murders were carried out in and around west London. The victims, all of whom were prostitutes, were asphyxiated. The press dubbed the murderer 'Jack the Stripper' on account of the fact that the victims were all stripped naked. Dirk Kirby, a former Flying Squad detective, uses his vast experience and contacts at Scotland Yard to re-examine the case, 50 years on.
