Australia Australian History True Crime Margaret Clement

Richard Shears’ true-crime title Swamp: Who Killed Margaret Clement? revisits one of Australia’s most perplexing cold cases, the 1952 disappearance of the wealthy recluse from her lonely Gippsland mansion. This 2008 hardback blends biography, local history and investigative reporting to explore how a woman once dubbed “the Queen of the Swamp” vanished without a trace.

The flexi-bound hardcover is clean, smoke-free and unmarked inside; only the jacket shows the light shelf wear you’d expect from a gently read copy. At 208 pages, it’s a compact, photo-illustrated read that suits both young-adult researchers and adult aficionados of Australian true crime.
