“A tour de force of storytelling.” —Louise Penny, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Chief Inspector Gamache series“Jobb’s excellent storytelling makes the book a pleasure to read.” —The New York Times Book Review ”When a doctor does go wrong he is the first of criminals,” Sherlock Holmes observed during one of his most baffling investigations. “He has nerve and he has knowledge.” In the span of fifteen years, Dr. Thomas Neill Cream murdered as many as ten people in the United States, Britain, and Canada, a death toll with almost no precedent. Poison was his weapon of choice. Largely forgotten today, this villain was as brazen as the notorious Jack the Ripper. Structured around the doctor’s London murder trial in 1892, when he was finally brought to justice, The Case of the Murderous Dr. Cream exposes the blind trust given to medical practitioners, as well as the flawed detection methods, bungled investigations, corrupt officials, and stifling morality of Victorian society that allowed Dr. Cream to prey on vulnerable and desperate women, many of whom had turned to him for medical help. Dean Jobb transports readers to the late nineteenth century as Scotland Yard traces Dr. Cream’s life through Canada and Chicago and finally to London, where new investigative tools called forensics were just coming into use, even as most police departments still scoffed at using science to solve crimes. But then, most investigators could hardly imagine that serial killers existed—the term was unknown. As the Chicago Tribune wrote, Dr. Cream’s crimes marked the emergence of a new breed of killer: one who operated without motive or remorse, who “murdered simply for the sake of murder.” For fans of Erik Larson’s The Devil in the White City, all things Sherlock Holmes, or the podcast My Favorite Murder, The Case of the Murderous Dr. Cream is an unforgettable true crime story from a master of the genre.

before the internet, crime data bases, DNA testing, on the cusp of forensic science, and a thickly opaque malleable justice system, you could get away with darn nigh anything - that's the takeaway from this book; that, and if you were superficially respectable - meaning male, white, and wealthy. never heard of Dr. Cream and while he murdered, a lot, he poisoned, so his crimes were not as sensational as that of his predecessor [and were not always IDd as crimes] - the less prolific Mr. Ripper [targeted area, probably the same guy, short span of time]. almost always under the influence, Cream was crazy and he talked crazy on sensational and unsavory subjects yet people not only tolerated him, sometimes they befriended him - not discussed in the book, but before porn and smut in the privacy of your own computer, he probably scratched an itch which helps understand why people didn't report him more often, that and Victorian reticence. Murderous stints in the US, Canada, and London [where cumulative effects and different judicial standards lead to different outcomes]. pretty long book - 300+ pages excluding notes - but attention keepingly told. digressions set the context and don't get out of hand. some of the illustrations are dubious and poorly produced [London street scenes etc], but the ones of the Dr taken by pros when he had money to burn are fabulous - what a fashion plate! engaged at least 3 times i seem to recall, he obviously had something.
