Read in January, 1999
recommends it for:
readers of true crime
This is an amazing tribute to Estelle Blackburn's persistence. Eric Edgar Cooke was a serial killer who was hanged in Western Australia in 1964. Unfortunately, two other men had already been imprisoned for murders that Cooke confessed to. One of those young men served 15 years, the other was not exonerated until 2002. Estelle Blackburn spent six years on the research for this book.

Those interested in true crime and justice advocacy
This was the crucial publication in reopening the cases of two men convicted of unlawful killings. It captures the atmosphere of 1960's Perth vividly.
