Produktbeschreibung

In 1882 dismembered human remains were discovered at a lonely campsite called 'The Sinkings' near Albany, Western Australia. The surgeon conducting the autopsy claimed they were those of a woman. Why, then, was the victim identified as Little Jock, a sandalwood-cutter and former convict? And why was the murder so brutal, so gruesome? More than a hundred years later, Willa Samson embarks on a search to find out.
