Big Love

Brooke Blurton

A raw, moving and uplifting memoir about courage, resilience and the transformative power of love, from one of Australia's most captivating personalities
'Powerful, heartbreaking and beautiful ... a story of incredible triumph fuelled by love and compassion' Osher Gunsberg
'Brooke Blurton is an icon for people of all generations and backgrounds. I love seeing her star shine.' Clementine Ford

My story is about the one thing that I never went without. Love. Big love, that filled me up and made me feel like there was a future for me. The kind of love that's unconditional, and that lasts across time and space ...
From the moment Brooke Blurton appeared on Australian television, she dazzled audiences with her authenticity, self-knowledge, generosity and honesty. As a proud young Noongar-Yamatji woman, Brooke's connection to her culture and country is deep, and as an openly queer woman, she knows that love is simply love. Most of all Brooke knows the importance of family, and the uplifting power of unconditional connection.
But behind the public persona Brooke presents to the world is a story of epic proportions and awe-inspiring resilience - she had to grow up fast from a very young age, surviving an extremely challenging childhood and youth, and overcoming the shocking legacy of intergenerational trauma, abuse and homelessness. She's also had to defy labels and perceptions about who she is, and her worth, all her life.
But through it all, Brooke didn't just survive, she found her voice and thrived, and in this raw, heartbreaking, often funny and ultimately life-affirming memoir, Brooke lays her journey bare about how she refused to allow the past to define her and reclaimed her own identity - and realised the power of love, for herself, for her family, and her community.

Noah Donohoe: The Search for...

Donal MacIntyre

FOR SIX DAYS during the summer of 2020, the city of Belfast held its breath and prayed that missing 14-year-old Noah Donohoe would be found alive. It was a story that united a divided community who poured out of their homes in extraordinary numbers, regardless of religious or political beliefs, to support the search effort for the popular missing schoolboy. However, despite their best efforts, with every passing day, hope ebbed. 
 
Noah’s distraught mother, Fiona, explained that her son had left home to meet his friends on his bicycle in the late afternoon on Father’s Day – a journey that was never completed – prompting her to raise the alarm. The next day his clothes and bike were found in a Protestant enclave of north Belfast, a part of the city he had never been before; an area where few Catholics would go, especially in the heat of the Orange marching season. Inexplicably, CCTV footage quickly revealed that Noah had cycled into that area – Northwood Road – at around 6pm on the 21st of June – the day of his disappearance. Shortly afterwards, further footage would catch a glimpse of him naked, cycling furiously into a cul-de-sac on the estate. Tragically, six days later, his body was found in a secluded storm drain 100 metres away. 
 
The mystery of what happened to Noah Donohoe, a smiling, much-loved teenage schoolboy still captivates the public who want answers to this inexplicable tragedy. Every time the story is featured, it makes front page news and paper sales soar. 
 
With exclusive access to the family and their legal team, and full access to all the inquest material, hundreds of statements and every text message sent by Noah and his friends and all the public responses on the case, Donal MacIntyre reveals the definitive untold account of one of the most talked about news stories of modern times.
