About this listen
The gripping true story of the notorious Claremont serial murders and the nation’s longest and most expensive investigation to catch the killer.
In the early hours of 27th January 1996, after an evening spent celebrating at Club Bayview in the Perth suburb of Claremont, 18-year-old Sarah Spiers called a taxi to nearby Mosman Park. But when the cab arrived, she’d already gone. She was never seen again.
Four months later, on 9th June 1996, 23-year-old Jane Rimmer disappeared from the same area, her body later found in bushland south of Perth. When the body of a third young woman, 27-year-old Ciara Glennon, was found north of the city, having vanished from Claremont in August 1997, it was clear a serial killer was on the loose.
A massive manhunt focused first on taxi drivers, then the outspoken local mayor and a quiet public servant. However, almost 20 years later, Australia’s longest and most expensive investigation had failed to make an arrest, until forensic evidence linked the murders to two previous attacks - and an unlikely suspect.
Stalking Claremont, by local newsman Bret Christian, is a riveting story of promising young lives cut short, a city in panic, an investigation fraught by oversights and red herrings, and a surprising twist that absolutely no one saw coming.

Riveting
Perhaps it's because I was living in Perth at the time
Perhaps it's because I am close to the same age as some of the people in this story
The emotional impact of this story was almost physical. I felt empathy for so many people and contempt for others
Although the murderer is rotting in prison I can't help thinking there's at least one other who should be serving alongside him

The background to this event is quite mind boggling. Makes you wonder how much the public ever do get told about events the Police are investigating -

Excellent
A really great book. Slow start however with alot of emphasis on stuff like Claremont town council politics, the venue and its planning applications, other suspects - understandably this is all background to a 20 year investigation୵situation but at times it felt like too much detail. The book however is overall very good and emotionally impactful.
