A journalist by training and a researcher by instinct, Penny Pembroke followed a trail of overlooked evidence, wartime secrecy. She made a chilling discovery that changed everything she thought she knew about The Blackout Ripper.
Over the past decade, she immersed herself in archives, court records, and survivor accounts. She painstakingly pieced together fragments that had long been dismissed or misunderstood. What she found didn’t match the official story. She wasn’t trying to rewrite history; she was trying to understand it. But the deeper she went, the clearer it became that something fundamental was wrong with the accepted version of events.
This book is the result of what she couldn’t ignore.
“The truth doesn’t disappear—it just waits for someone willing to look for it.”
— Penny Pembroke
“Penny Pembroke spent years examining newly digitized wartime records, reconciling inconsistencies, and reconstructing a chronology overlooked for 80 years. She’s done what even seasoned journalists missed—she found something genuinely new.”
— Detective Chief Inspector Alastair Grayson (Ret.)
