This is a true-life story with necessary name changes. It describes the tragedies that have befallen 5 missing people since 2004 in the small coastal surfing village called Piha, Auckland, New Zealand. Women have been chased and hunted in the bush surrounding Piha, and more women have been drugged and raped.
This book highlights the lack of action by police, taking too long to organise searches, and evidence of the police not believing witnesses. It covers complaints sent to the IPCA and about their misogynistic way of handling some of the rape victims. And how this treatment from the system sets up victims to fail in getting justice. Strap yourself in for an unbelievable learning experience.
