These were the words that set a team of journalists at the Adelaide Advertiser on an investigation into the mysterious deaths of six young Aboriginal women. Each year dozens of Indigenous women or girls die by murder or suicide. Rose Hunter-Hebberman was one of them.

Here to Stay is a collection of honest, searing, and evocative poems interspersed with short personal narratives.
