Londra, 1888. Nelle strade del quartiere di Whitechapel, Jack lo Squartatore si aggira di notte uccidendo e sventrando le prostitute. Sulle sue tracce, oltre all'intera polizia londinese, c'è l'ispettore Frederick George Abberline, l'unico che capisce subito che i delitti sono preceduti da una meticolosa e scrupolosa messa in scena. Il poliziotto, intuitivo e visionario, cerca di ricostruire il profilo di Jack anche grazie all'aiuto della prostituta Mary Kelly.
