A searing investigation that challenges everything you thought you knew about domestic abuse

Winner of the Stella Prize

Domestic abuse is a national emergency- one in four Australian women has experienced violence from a man she was intimate with. But too often we ask the wrong question- why didn't she leave? We should be asking- why did he do it?

Investigative journalist Jess Hill puts perpetrators - and the systems that enable them - in the spotlight. See What You Made Me Do is a deep dive into the abuse so many women and children experience - abuse that is often reinforced by the justice system that is meant to protect them. Critically, it shows that we can drastically reduce domestic violence - not in generations to come, but today.

Combining forensic research with riveting storytelling, this fully updated edition of Jess Hill's acclaimed bestseller radically rethinks how to confront the national crisis of fear and abuse in our homes.

This is an essential resource for anyone who works with survivors and those at risk of experiencing domestic abuse.
