Still at Birth
STILL AT BIRTH details the highly emotional personal journey of Caroline Sugden, from euphoria at the anticipation of the birth to the nightmare following the death of her baby daughter, Isabelle Rose. In 2004, Caroline and Mark Sugden joined the ranks of millions of first-time mums and dads. At 39.75 weeks their perfect baby was born. Isabelle Rose was a lovely baby with 10 fingers and 10 toes, but she did not get to take her first breath. In one horrific moment, Caroline, Mark and Isabelle Rose went from being a loving family unit to being mere statistics, joining the 2000 families who suffer stillbirth each year in Australia alone. In this book, Caroline shares the most intimate details of her experiences in order to empower and help other couples who are given nothing but empty rhetoric about the unexplained death of their baby. She also discusses the subsequent physical, psychological and emotional hurdles which are part of the process of deciding to have another baby.
The Job
Charlie Bezzina was one of Victoria's top homicide detectives. In his 17 years in the Homicide Squad, he investigated more than 300 suspicious deaths, including 150 murders - among them the crimes of serial killer Paul Denyer, the killing of Melbourne gangland figure Alphonse Gangitano, the baffling disappearances of Sarah McDiarmid and former gameshow model Jacquie Ramchen, and the death of former Test cricketer David Hookes. This is the never-before-told story of Bezzina's rise from a sheltered childhood in a Maltese family in Melbourne's western suburbs, to a widely respected senior detective who served Victoria Police with distinction and unquestioned integrity for 37 years, culminating in his acrimonious and highly controversial departure from the force. The Job is an explosive and intriguing account of what it takes to be a criminal investigator at the highest level.
