MILAT

It is more than 14 years since one of Australia's worst serial killers was jailed for the rest of his natural life for the murder of seven young backpackers. Two British, three German and two Australian backpackers were slaughtered in Belanglo State Forest. Roger Maynard's chilling inside story of the crime which shocked the world takes a fresh look at the case and the long-held theory that there were two killers.

Maynard retraces the investigation and the trial and some of the key players for their thoughts on what really took place in Belanglo two decades ago. This updated account of the original story also looks at what's happened to Ivan Milat since he was found guilty and incarcerated in the Supermax Wing of Goulburn Jail. Self mutilation, several appeals and confessions to inmates are covered.

The questions remain. How many more people did he kill? Did he have an accomplice? These and other critical issues are examined in Maynard's devastating profile of the Australian whose reign of terror shocked the world.
