With this book, the author looks at some of the stranger conspiracies surrounding the legend and reveals who she thinks Jack the Ripper was.

Feminine and Forgotten is a journey through the untold stories of women who shaped history, and were too often erased from it. From rulers and revolutionaries to scientists, artists, and survivors, this book brings together the lives of women whose courage, ambition, and complexity defied the expectations of their time.
Told through a lens of empathy and curiosity, each chapter reclaims a voice once silenced, revealing that the line between hero and villain is rarely clear. These women were praised, punished, misunderstood, and, in many cases, deliberately forgotten, yet their influence endures.
Blending history with personal reflection, Feminine and Forgotten challenges readers to look beyond the familiar narratives and reconsider how we define greatness. It is a reminder that the legacy of humanity is not written by perfection, but by those who dared to live fully, however history chose to remember them.

History prefers to forget women who kill. Society paints them as mad, hysterical, or heartbroken, anything but ruthless, calculating murderers. Deadly and Feminine rips away that illusion, exposing the cold truth behind the women history tried to erase.
From poisoners and pirates to cult followers and serial killers, these stories reveal women who shattered every expectation of innocence and femininity. Some killed for money, some for power, and some simply for control. Their methods were as varied as their motives, arsenic-laced dinners, smothered victims, blades in the night, and crimes committed right under society’s nose.
But this is more than a line-up of killers. It’s a commentary on the poverty, misogyny, superstition, and institutional failures that allowed them to thrive. You’ll meet women who were underestimated, dismissed, or even romanticised—yet their actions left trails of blood and fear.

No Honour in Victory is a brutal, unflinching account of the lesser-known atrocities of World War committed by the Japanese Imperial Army. From the human experiments of Unit 731 and the systematic rape of “comfort women” to the forgotten massacres of Nanking, Manila, and the death marches of Sandakan and Bataan, this book rips away sanitised war narratives and exposes the raw, often buried truth.
Painfully researched and written without flinching, No Honour in Victory demands the reader confront the moral grey zones of war, the complicity of silence, and the chilling reality that history doesn’t just repeat itself, it evolves.

In times of war, heroes emerge in many forms—some celebrated, others lost to history. Warriors of War uncovers the extraordinary, often overlooked figures whose courage, intelligence, and ingenuity shaped the course of World War II.
From Alan Turing, the brilliant mathematician who cracked the Enigma code yet was persecuted for his identity, to Nicholas Winton, the quiet London stockbroker who saved hundreds of Jewish children, this book brings to light stories of resilience and sacrifice. It delves into the daring exploits of resistance fighters like Freddie Oversteegen, the teenage assassin luring Nazis to their deaths, and Paul Gruninger, the Swiss police officer who risked his career to smuggle Jewish refugees to safety.
It also honours the unorthodox heroes—engineers and inventors like those behind the Mulberry Harbours and Operation PLUTO, whose innovations ensured Allied victory.
