Résumé
This revised, expanded collection of true crime by Australia's foremost crime writers digs beneath the polite exterior of modern Australian life to expose its chilling core. It details the exploits of criminal families and examines the gene of pure evil… that drives maniacs to randomly kill. It explores the effect of crime on innocent victims caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, the contribution made by police who put their lives on the line every day, and salutes the private individuals who stand up and fight back. Stories include: John Silvester on Donald MacKay and the Australian Mafia; Andrew Rule on the Queen Street Massacre; Malcolm Brown on Ivan Milat; Vikki Petraitis on serial killer Paul Denyer; Jennifer Cooke on the Anita Cobby murder; Murray Mottram on the senseless killing of a taxi driver by teenagers; Greg Fogarty on the Crawford murders and Greg Linnell on the life of an undercover cop.
