The Secrets of Belanglo: What you Wasn't told About the Backpacker Murders

By Alistair Shipsey and Paul Gregory

When the world accepted the story of the Backpacker Murders, I saw only fragments, anomalies, and unasked questions. I'm Ivan Milat's nephew. For the past fifteen years I've gathered documents, testimonies, and hidden threads that have been overlooked, dismissed, or buried. What emerges isn't just a new angle-it's a challenge to the accepted narrative.

In this deeply sourced, emotionally charged investigation, you'll get:

A family insider's access combined with the discipline of a cold case investigator.

New evidence that reframes motive, opportunity, and the timeline of events.

Unpublished correspondence, forensic inconsistencies, and interviews that peel back layers of institutional silence.

A clear-eyed narrative that walks readers through how assumptions hardened into "truth," and why they may have been wrong.

For true crime fans who crave detail over drama, clarity over conjecture, this is a must-read. Prepare to question everything you thought you knew about one of Australia's most notorious cases.
