A young Aboriginal man and a white police officer face each other in a house in the desert. The violence that passes between them carries the pain and anger of generations of unfinished business.
The Red House is not just a book about the fatal shooting of Kumanjayi Walker and Constable Zachary Rolfe's murder trial: Walkley Award-winning journalist Kate Wild exposes the potent power of race in Australia.
This is an exploration of the inseparable connections between this country's past, present and future, and the chance to change that cycle.
'Kate Wild's The Red House is an extraordinary and gutsy piece of work. This is an investigation that requires a cool head and a deep heart - and Wild has both. She is thorough and unwavering as she examines not only the killing of a young Indigenous man in an isolated desert community and the high-profile murder trial of a policeman that followed, but also tracing patterns that have been in play for far too long in this nation. Deft and electric, The Red House is a must-read and Wild is a writer to trust.' ANNA KRIEN, journalist, author and poet
'A gripping and confronting narrative built on forensic research, The Red House is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand race relations in Australia today. With an unflinching eye for detail and human frailty, Kate Wild takes us inside one of the most tragic events in recent Australian history and reveals it as part of one long, interconnected moment. Unmissable.' MARK MCKENNA, historian and author©2025 Kate Wild
