During this time he has built an impressive reputation with his coverage of major crime and investigative stories in Britian, Europe and the U.S.A. He was named Crime Reporter of the Year for 1976, largely for his background work on the Black Panther case.Roger Cross has been working on the sensational 'Yorkshire Ripper' case from the very beginning, and has been afforded the confidence and full co-operation of the Yorkshire Police. In the six years that he has reported the'Ripper' murders for the Yorkshire Post, he has forged close personal links with the battalion of detectives ceaselessly at work on the case, and gained from them valuable and exclusive hard 'inside' information. He had benefited enormously from long and very candid conversations with many senior police officers. He has delved deeply into every aspect of the case, interviewing and extensively researching both Peter Sutcliffe's background and the strategies used, and the problems encountered, by the police force assigned to catch him.Roger Cross has produced a fascinating and extraordinary document, the fullest and best-informed account we will ever see of the most sensational murder case in history: the murders, manhunt, arrest and trial of the man known as the Yorkshire Ripper.
