Who is really

Jack the Ripper?

  • At first the reader may think is Moriarty, but later the book reveals that Jack the Ripper is nobody but Sherlock Holmes.

Page 18, second paragraph. Page 31, second paragraph.

  • “Then I recognized the body as the woman who I had seen drinking and talking with Sherlock Holmes. He was still with her but he was not dead. He had a knife in his hand and he was cutting up her face and her body. As he cut the woman to pieces, he was singing.”

Page 31, second paragraph.

Holmes behaviour

  • Sherlock Holmes became a detective in 1877. Soon he began to find the work easy. Ten years later he was famous, but unhappy and bored.

  • He just needed an interesting case, but he couldn't find anyone, so he started doing cocaine

  • He murders all that women and blames Moriaty

Page 8, first paragraph.

Who is Moriaty?

  • Holmes calls Moriarty the evil part of himself

  • He “kills” Moriarty, gets rid of that bad part of him, but later it returns.

  • That’s why Watson tries to kill him, but he can’t and Holmes finally kills himself.

“ ‘Never fear old fellow,’ he said. ‘I shall not let him hurt you’. Then he stepped backwards off the path. I saw his body hit the rocks far blow”
