The Peppercorn Tree launch
For fifty years, Mildura-local, John Fitzgibbon did not tell anyone about the abuse he had suffered at the hands of notorious priest and paedophile, Father John Day. He suffered alone as the Catholic Church and elements of Victoria Police protected both Day and the Church. Slowly, John gained the confidence to tell a few close friends and professionals, including former detective Denis Ryan, who told a small part of John’s story in his book Unholy Trinity. Now, John reveals the full story of the abuse and trauma he suffered, in his powerful memoir, The Peppercorn Tree.
Join John alongside advocate Ali Cupper for the launch of The Peppercorn Tree at Collins Booksellers, Mildura, on Wednesday 14 February at 5pm. RSVP here.
