Critics Review

‘Emma Partridge’s account of the trial of the Widow of Walcha is as gripping as a novel … an Australian true crime story containing many of the elements of a fictional crime novel: bizarre murder, suicide, theft, bribery, blackmail, love, hate, drugs, co-incidence, change of a will and lies.’ * Canberra Times *‘This was wild … [Emma Partridge] has done an amazing job here, travelling to Walcha and speaking to so many people, fleshing out history, trying to track down people from Natasha’s past and sort the truth from the lies … Highly, highly recommended.’ * 1 Girl … 2 Many Books *‘5 stars … one of the best Australian true crime accounts I’ve ever read!’ * Carpe Librum *
