My Mother Killed Snakes

This book will interest those people who are victims of domestic violence; they will feel some justice is being delivered through the main character's expedient and successful elimination of violent male perpetrators. They may also believe the judiciary is not protecting victims but are made to believe it is their job to forgive and forget. The story is set in rural Australia and covers aspects of true history of the regional cities and country towns, in particular, Mildura, Clunes, Daylesford, Ferntree Gully, Ballarat, and life on Flinders Island, Tasmania. The heroine is Mavis; her daughter Lara narrates her mother's story while working for the Attorney General in Canberra. Lara, as a student, had been outraged by crimes against Aboriginals and the Australian Convicts. When she realizes her mother's outrageous deeds, she becomes aware of crimes against women and children generally.
