A portrait of a heartless killerMichael Duffy is a Sydney-based journalist who writes a crime column on trials for the Sun Herald. In Call Me Cruel, he examines an unusually cruel killer and the devastating impact of his crime on the many victims.

The investigation into the murder of Kylie Labouchardiere has been described by one of the states most experienced Crown prosecutors as among the most complex and bizarre in his experience. Kylie disappeared in 2004. Her killer, Paul Wilkinson, was convicted in 2009. Her body has never been found.

Michael Duffy approaches the murder from the viewpoint of four of those most affected by the crime: Kylies parents, Wilkinsons wife, and a policeman caught up in the events entirely by accident. Softcover 206 pages

Ethical guidance for a new millenniumHis Holiness The Dalai Lama enters the debate on religion, with this inspiring sequel to Ancient Wisdom, Modern World.

In Beyond Religion: Ethics For A Whole World, the Dalai Lama argues that religion is not a necessity for pursuing a spiritual life. Rather, focusing on tolerance and understanding between religions, as well as tolerance and understanding between believers (of any faith) and non-believers is the way forward. The way to achieve such an approach, he proposes, is through a system of secular ethics grounded in a deep appreciation of our common humanity.

This book is a modern-day polemic that outlines the ethics that the Dalai Lama believes should be central to our lives. Hardback

A rich and evocative account of convict womenFrom the crowded tenements of Edinburgh to the Female Factory in the shadow of Mt Wellington, dozens of Scottish women convicts were exiled to Van Diemens Land with their young children.

In the early 19th century, women of little means struggling to feed and clothe themselves, were left with few options other than theft and prostitution. The Scottish authorities, anxious to quell petty crime, imposed harsh sentences, consigning these women and often their children too for transportation to the Australian colonies.

Lucy Frost tells the stories of a boatload of women and their children who arrived in Hobart in 1838, bringing to life a long forgotten but fascinating group of convicts. Softcover 288 pages
