Alone on a busy road in Adelaide, Maya Yakage had no idea she was facing one of South Australia's most reviled men: Mark Erin Rust. Rust began his life as a sex pest, who sought the "revulsion thrill" from shocking women. But his violence was untreated and constantly escalating to much more intimidating acts.
He was always on the lookout for a woman on her own. When Rust encountered Maya, rejection sent him into a total rage. He lunged toward her, a physical assault he had never attempted before. Hours later, an anonymous voice—the killer's own—reported a body in the bushes of a disused police station. Rust is a man whose contempt for women is boundless. He had killed once, and nothing was stopping him. What horrors would this menacing misogynist inflict next?
