Description
In December 1932, as the Depression tightened its grip, the body of a woman was found in Queens Park, Sydney. It was a popular park. There were houses in plain view.

Author Tanya Bretherton joins April to discuss this case. You can find Tanya's book The Killing Streets at any good bookstore now.
