The Teacher's Pet
Author(s): Hedley Thomas
Lynette Dawson (nee Simms) disappeared from Sydney's idyllic northern beaches in 1982 and was never seen again. The Teacher's Pet, the book, tells the extraordinary story of the crime, the podcast investigation, the sexual exploitation of female teenage students, the failure for four decades of the criminal justice system, the hopes of a family and a community desperate for answers, and the courtroom drama.
It is a brilliantly written and compulsively readable account of almost forty years of shameful injustice over one of Australia's most astonishing murder cases, the firepower of crusading and no-holds-barred journalism, and our collective and innate determination to see evil punished.
