A murder without motive : the killing of Rebecca Ryle

McKenzie-Murray, Martin2016
Books, Manuscripts
In 2004, the body of a young Perth woman was found on the grounds of a primary school. Her name was Rebecca Ryle. The killing would mystify investigators, lawyers, and psychologists - and profoundly rearrange the life of the victim's family. It would also involve the author's family, because his brother knew the man charged with the murder. For years, the two had circled each other suspiciously, in a world of violence, drugs, and rotten aspirations. This book is a police procedural, a meditation on suffering, and an exploration of how the different parts of the justice system make sense of the senseless.
