Geoff is a retired historian and researcher who wrote the official histories of Australia’s involvement in chemical weapons. His research has led to the unearthing of hundreds of lethal phosgene bombs at the former chemical warfare headquarters at Marrangaroo, near Sydney. He has written numerous books, including an account of Australia’s deadliest building fire. He now specialises in true crime. Death Row at Truro was shortlisted for the Ned Kelly True Crime Book Award, and The Whiskey Au Go Go Massacre was instrumental in the Queensland State Coroner reinvestigating the 1973 arson murders. His work has featured in all major newspapers, as well as on radio and television. In 2025, he put a mass-killing serial arsonist (turned sex predator) back into prison. The fourth most dangerous arsonist in world history conned an incompetent justice system into granting him a suspended sentence for a sex crime against a minor. He could not deceive Plunkett, who secured a perjury conviction against him. The forthcoming book Their Burning Desire tells that story.
