February 2016 marks the 30th anniversary of one of the shocking murders in Australia's criminal history. On a hot summer night in 1986, beautiful young Sydney nurse Anita Cobby alighted from a train at Blacktown station and set off to a horrific fate. Updated with more information, previously unpublished, about the crime, this book is a must-have for those with an interest in the more morose details of human nature and crime.
