Seven murders . . . seven weeks . . . the true story of Australia' s worst serial sexual homicides. Christopher Worrell and James Miller killed as many people as the notorious serial killer Ivan Milat. They are Australia' s most prolific serial sexual homicide offenders, yet they are little known outside their home state of South Australia. This is an injustice. James Miller, the only one to tell the tale, said it was all his mate' s doing. He and Worrell often picked up girls off the street. Miller drove them to a discreet location, where Worrell and the women had consensual sex. Miller pleased his lover and the women got what they sought, sex with an attractive and charismatic man in an exciting circumstance. It was fun all round. But then it all went wrong. On 23 December 1976, they picked up Veronica Knight. Worrell went satanic, killing her without warning. And then it happened again and again, six more times. There was nothing Miller could do. He was victim number eight. This is the established narrative. It is a lie. Using the latest research into serial sexual homicide, the truth of the murder spree and the offender' s motives are uncovered. These revelations can lead to prevention. Meet the blameless victims who were not just names in the media . . . they were young women with hopes and dreams. Their lives were stolen by a psychopathic serial killing tag-team.
