The Phillip Island Murder
by Paul Daley, Vikki Petraitis
This book was originally published in 1994 and then republished in 2018 with a small update. I first heard about this case on the Podcast CaseFiles and it fascinated me enough to find this book. And the book has plenty of details about the murder and the circumstances around it. However, it doesn’t have a lot of background about the principle people (Fergus & Vivienne Cameron or Beth Barnard), it doesn’t give information about how the investigation went after the initial interviews with people of interest, nothing about Beth’s family - it lacks a lot of background and makes for an incomplete story.
If you want a book that has a narrow focus on the forensic details and the happenings shortly before and after the murder then this is up your alley. However, it left me wanting a fuller picture of the people involved as well as the aftermath if there was any.
