Description
At primary school, Keiran McGee did a talk about her activist aunt Juanita Nielsen telling the class she was murdered by the Kings Cross underground. Her classmates didn’t clap. Decades later, Keiran is embarking on her own investigation to find answers for her family about Juanita’s unsolved disappearance and get to know the aunt she never knew. Her first interview is Juanita’s ex-boyfriend, who was one of the last people to see her alive.  Keiran, along with Aunty Pip, discovers a trove of documents that other family members have put aside, more than twenty boxes revealing numerous leads and fresh evidence from witnesses who’ve never been made public.
