PRODUCT INFORMATION

Description

On Australia Day 1966, the Beaumont children Jane, Arnna and Grant disappeared from an Adelaide beach. Despite a large-scale police investigation and extensive media coverage, the case remains unsolved, bogged down by false leads and dead ends, and the Beaumont children were never seen again.In 2006, author Alan Whiticker, assisted by researcher Stuart Mullins, wrote the definitive account of the siblings disappearance in 'Searching for the Beaumont Children'. Since the publication of that book, fresh leads have been sceptically received, until one family in particular presented a remarkable possibility that their family patriarch, a man with a peculiar predilection for satin, might have been involved.This book, The Satin Man, is the result of the ten years that followed, in which Whiticker and Mullins continued their hunt for the truth.It details everything uncovered about the new potential suspect, a man of wealth and position, and sheds incredible new light on this decades-old mystery with vital additional information on the unsolved case.This fully revised and updated edition of the bestselling book brings the still unsolved case full circle.

"The Satin Man" is a most intriging book.

The author argues for a suspect who lived very close to Glenelg beach; a man who was a paedophile and a rapist, who had a habit of handing out one pound notes as payment for those who did favours for him. This man may have enticed the three Beaumont children to walk from the beach to his nearby home using a pound note to pay for their lunches before he murdered them. Such is the claim of his recently-deceased son.

This forms the core of the author's argument that this wealthy South Australian business man was responsible for the disappearance of the three children from Glenelg beach on January 26, 1966.
I found the book thoroughly enjoyable and presents a very plausible theory which appears consistent with the eyewitnesses who observed a tall man playing with the children before their disappearence that day.

Hopefully this book will assist in keeping this mystery alive in the memories of Australians and ultimately lead to the discovery of the fate of Jane, Arnna, and Grant Beaumont.
