New Holland recalls Jill Meagher book

New Holland is recalling copies of Evil in a Blue Hoodie: The Tragic Murder of Jill Meagher by Joe St John due to a court suppression order.

A spokesperson for New Holland told Books+Publishing that the suppression order prevents the publication of information about previous crimes committed by Meagher’s convicted killer Adrian Bayley. The spokesperson said the suppression order is in effect as Bayley is still facing another court case, which has been postponed until next year.

St John’s book offers ‘an insight into who Adrian Ernest Bayley was and his lifetime of crime’, and was published by New Holland in July. The publisher is offering a no-fault return.
