Softcover. In 1999 and 2000, two Victoria teenagers were convicted of the murder of their schoolfellow, 14yr. old Reena Virk. Of the more than 500 drawings she prepared as courtroom artist for the trials, Heather Spears has selected some 50 to accompany the poems that record her experience of the process. An epilogue by the poet's niece, Holly Spears, presents yet another perspective on the trials - that of a young person. Illus. 96pp. 4to. softcover. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. F.
