The streets of London’s East End are awash with blood. A murderer stalks the night, picking off vulnerable women and leaving them brutally butchered. But this is not the 19th Century; this is not Jack the Ripper – this is a copycat killer and once again the police remain clueless… For fast-tracked, media savvy DI Chandler it’s his first big murder case; for front-line, hard-bitten DS Miles, he’s now saddled with a boss who would rather talk about Emotional Intelligence than gut feeling. Neither of them have a clue, until renowned ‘Ripperologist’ Edward Buchan draws their attention to the similarities between the Jack the Ripper killings in 1888 and the modern-day murder. The race is on to succeed where police officers failed over 100 years before – to catch the copycat killer before he strikes again. (oficjalny tekst dystrybutora)

Morderca z Whitechapel (2009)
I was looking forward to the standard finely crafted British crime series and got something I didn't expect at all, a finely crafted British mystery crime series with an awesome atmosphere. The perfect theme was supported by a great script and brilliant performances. The only unfortunate misstep was Season 2. Its plot didn't feel very convincing, but seasons 3 and 4 got things back on track. The series itself has only one flaw, it has ended. I was looking forward to seeing at least one more season, but the creators decided to quit while they were ahead, so I had to say goodbye to a police department that never burdened the British judicial system. It was intriguing to watch the police solve mysterious cases, while struggling with their own lives. DI Chandler was definitely a Pandora’s box.
