    Shocking True Crimes can happen in Your Street. 
     
    From acclaimed true crime author and podcaster Emily Webb comes a gripping collection of chilling cases from Australia and beyond. This volume delves into both well-known and obscure crimes, revealing the dark underbelly lurking beneath seemingly peaceful neighbourhoods. 
     
    In 1977, the murder of an Australian nurse living in Texas shocked the community and remains unsolved to this day. In 1950, the disappearance of a Melbourne woman led to the largest search of its time, only for her husband to later confess to disposing of her body under dubious circumstances. 
     
    The book also examines decades of baby abductions from hospitals, suburban homes, and public streets, highlighting the vulnerability of the most innocent among us. The still-unsolved murder of elderly "gentleman grocer" Frank Newbery in Newcastle serves as a chilling reminder of the darkness that can lurk in the most familiar places. 
     
    In the 1950s, a cricket match in suburban Adelaide turned into a scene of terror when a gunman opened fire, fatally shooting one player and injuring another. In 1973, during a bustling football game at Adelaide Oval, 11-year-old Joanne Ratcliffe and 4-year-old Kirste Gordon vanished without a trace, their disappearances haunting the community to this day 
     
    Murder in the Suburbs is a compelling reminder that even the most tranquil street can harbor dark secrets. These true accounts will leave you questioning the safety of the world just outside your door. 
     
     
    ‘Webb certainly whets the appetite for more reading around these cases … A solid addition to any true crime lover’s bookshelf.’ GLAM 
     
    ‘Her telling of a range of tales reads as factual, careful and very considered … That doesn't mean that she shies away from explaining what happened to many of these victims, it, fortunately, lacks the sensationalism that can sometimes be found in these sorts of accounts.’ AustralianCrimeFiction.org

    A true story about lies, murder and the Territory.  
    ‘Sorry, mate, but that’s the message.’ Zak says to grow some balls and defend him. 
    You’ve got to remember he is still a young bloke, stuck in Darwin prison where it’s always hot, the food is slop and they get rats in the wet season. 
    It’s not enough just to help him get out; Zak wants people to accept his innocence and that he was wrongfully convicted. 
    ‘I don’t know what you want to do with that,’ he tells me. 
      
    Zak Grieve grew up in an outback town, at the crossroads between right and wrong, white and black, punishment and forgiving. Convicted of a brutal killing despite even the judge saying he wasn’t there when it happened, he spent years writing letters describing his hopes and dreams, his role in what happened, and how when the real world came down on him with a tonne of punishment, he wasn’t ready. 
      
    This is a book about growing up, about dying and about writing. In the end, it is only Zak’s imagination, given life in the novels he also writes inside prison, that hold the key to his survival. 
      
    In the grand tradition of Helen Garner’s Joe Cinque’s Consolation and Chloe Hooper’s The Tall Man, this is a gripping story of injustice in the Deep North of Australia.

Her story demonstrates how our life journey and its teachings are unique for each of us.

She shares her hunger for prayer and a relationship with God. The bold, yet gentle book of life memories starts as a child, travails through her moments of desperation, to a seasoned woman, nurse, spiritual director and writer. It will touch your heart, inviting transformation. 
     
    Her memoir includes her struggle with the deaths of two young patients. She considered marriage to be a life-long commitment, and found it wasn’t. She went to therapy more than once. Dawn seeks and receives spiritual direction. She also walks the contemplative discernment process through the education of providing spiritual direction. As you witness her life, you’ll see her major losses turn into her gifts. Ageing and the virus COVID-19, at times seen as insurmountable challenges, bring about a grateful, inclusive, energized being. She shows the joys and woes of our lives have energy to foster: healing of a broken heart, a fulfilling relationship with God, and a life open to being true to our authentic selves.
