As enigmatic in life as in death, Mollie Dean was a woman determined to transcend. Creatively ambitious and sexually precocious, at twenty-five, she was a poet, aspiring novelist and muse on the peripheries of Melbourne's bohemian salons - until one night in 1930, she was brutally slain by an unknown killer in a laneway while walking home.
