Book Synopsis



Ivan Milat's killing spree through the Australian outback left a trail of terror and cemented his legacy as one of the most ruthless serial killers in history. Targeting young backpackers seeking adventure, Milat turned the idyllic Belanglo State Forest into a nightmare, brutally murdering at least seven travelers. His horrifying crimes became the real-life inspiration for the hit horror film Wolf Creek, an iconic piece of Australian cinema.

This book unravels the shocking details of Milat's brutality, the relentless investigation that brought him to justice, and the cultural effects that turned his story into both a cautionary tale and a dark fascination for true crime fans. Discover the unsettling truths behind the man who terrorized a nation.

Perfect for fans of Mindhunter, Making a Murderer, and anyone drawn to the real-life stories behind horror's most haunting legends, this is the definitive account of a killer who terrorized the Australian Outback.
