“My intention in writing this book is not to hunt and name the killer. I wish instead to retrace the footsteps of five women, to consider their experiences within the context of their era, and to follow their paths through both the gloom and the light. They were worth more to us than the empty human shells we have taken them for: they were children who cried for their mothers; they were young women who fell in love; they endured childbirth and the deaths of parents; they laughed and celebrated Christmas. They argued with their siblings, they wept, they dreamed, they hurt, they enjoyed small triumphs. The courses their lives took mirrored that of so many other women of the Victorian age, and yet so singular in the way they ended. It is for them that I write this book. I do so in the hope that we may now hear their stories clearly and give back to them that which was so brutally taken away with their lives: their dignity.”

“Distruggere il più debole. Oppure indebolire il più forte per poi distruggerlo. L'aggressione come garanzia per la sopravvivenza. Colpire per sottrarsi alla paura di essere colpiti. Sentirsi impotenti, ridurre l'altro all'impotenza. Sentirsi in pericolo, portare l'altro in pericolo. Sentirsi nulla, ridurre l'altro al nulla.”
