Erin Patterson was convicted of murdering three of her estranged husband’s relatives with a death cap mushroom lunch — and both her appeal and the prosecution’s cross-appeal were argued before the Victorian Court of Appeal on 19–20 August 2026. This book walks through the lunch, the investigation, the trial, the verdict, and the live appeal — including a step most true-crime coverage misses: the appeal can go against her on conviction AND sentence at the same time, because the two appeals run on different rules. Includes a full timeline, evidence map, family diagram, and a chapter-by-chapter source ledger with every direct quote dated and sourced. Delivered as EPUB — opens on any device.
