    SHOT: A simmering thriller from Australia s most exciting crime writer

    Shelley Burr

    Formats & Editions

    A murder is witnessed by thousands, but who pulled the trigger?

    Dahlia and Duncan Crews are rich, famous, glamorous - they share their lifestyle and picture-perfect family with hundreds of thousands of online subscribers. The Crews have it all - until they don't. Shot dead in the middle of a livestream, the couple's teenage daughter, Karma, is the sole survivor. And the prime suspect.

    Years later, disgraced true-crime vlogger Jennifer Benedetta is hired to film a cold-case documentary on the unsolved Crews family murders. It's the chance she needs to salvage her reputation, but there's a catch: prove Karma Crews innocent. But something - or someone - is lurking just off camera, and the closer Jennifer gets to the truth, the further she is from safety. Who is watching? And how far will they go to remain unseen?
