{"product_id":"9780987341969","title":"Don't Ever Call Me Helpless : Australia's Worst Female Serial Killer","description":"Have you ever wondered what it would be like to spend time with a convicted serial killer? Or how you would feel when they told you what it was like to take a life? Don't Ever Call Me Helpless is a powerful, chilling true crime story that offers a rare glimpse into the mind of convicted murderer Catherine Birnie. In the late 1980s, Catherine and her defacto partner David Birnie went on a killing spree that shocked and numbed the Western Australian community. In just six weeks they abducted, tortured, raped and murdered four Perth women, and were only caught when a fifth victim escaped and led police to the killers. During the 1990s author Ruth Wykes was a frequent visitor to Perth's Bandyup Women's Prison. She spent many hours with Catherine Birnie, and her account of the woman, mother, and remorseless killer is a must-read for anyone who is interested in true crime. Welcome to Crime Shots - short, sharp, true crime stories from Australia's past and present.","brand":"Clan Destine Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47120589816048,"sku":"9780987341969","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780987341969_p0.jpg?v=1763891128","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780987341969","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
