Trace: Who Killed Maria James? | Rachael Brown

pick

I loved reading Trace as much as I loved listening to the podcast initially. Sure, it broke my heart and turned my stomach at times, but that‘s the reality of what happened to Maria James and her family. I live in hope that Brown‘s investigation, which is ongoing, brings some answers and closure for the James boys, and everyone else impacted by this horrific crime(s).

This book delves into the cold case of the murder of Maria James in Melbourne. A fascinating case and an indepth investigation by the author.Whilst Maria's murder remains unsolved to date, its not due to any lack of tenacity from the author, Police Investigators or her 2 sons.This book also gives an insight into the Catholic Church and the child sexual abuse that may have been a mitigating factor in Maria's murder. A disturbing and haunting read.

Trace: Who Killed Maria James? | Rachael Brown

After a strange phone call with his ex-wife, John James sensed something was wrong & went to her house. As he stood in her bedroom doorway, transfixed by the sight of her body, the killer was almost certainly just a breath away. Had John walked in, he could have been the next victim. Instead, he left to call the police. The culprit escaped, taking with him the secret of a shocking murder that has shown no sign of being solved for nearly 40 years.
