Summary

At the office of Safe Steps, Victoria's dedicated 24/7 family violence response call centre, phone counsellors receive a call every three minutes. Many women are repeat callers, on average, they will go back to an abusive partner eight times before leaving for good. Domestic abuse is a national emergency: one in four Australian women has experienced violence from a man she was intimate with. But too often we ask the wrong question: why didn't she leave? We should be asking: why did he do it? Investigative journalist Jess Hill puts perpetrators, and the systems that enable them, in the spotlight. See What You Made Me Do is a deep dive into the abuse so many women and children experience, abuse that is often reinforced by the justice system they trust to protect them. Critically, it shows that we can drastically reduce domestic violence, not in generations to come, but today. Combining forensic research with riveting storytelling, See What You Made Me Do radically rethinks how to confront the national crisis of fear and abuse in our homes
