Stalking Claremont / Stalking Claremont : inside the hunt for a serial killer Bret Christian. - Sydney, NSW : ABC Books, 2021. - 391 pages, 16 unnumbered pages of plates : map ; 24 cm.
The gripping true story of the notorious Claremont serial murders and the nation's longest and most expensive investigation to catch the killer In the space of just over year in 1996-7, three young women disappeared from Claremont, an upmarket suburb in central Perth. When two of the young women were found murdered, Australia's longest and most expensive investigation was established. More than twenty years later, an unlikely suspect was arrested based on forensic evidence that also linked the murders to two previous vicious rapes. The Claremont Killings, by local newsman Bret Christian, is a riveting story of young lives cut short, a city in panic, an investigation riddled with error and incompetence, and a surprising twist that absolutely no one saw coming.
Winner 2021 Ned Kelly Award for True Crime.
