SUNDAY, 28 APRIL 1996, had dawned cool and fine on the sleepy peninsula of Port Arthur in tasmania. Mick Sargent and Kate Scott were squeezing in some sightseeing before heading back to Perth. Police sergeant terry McCarthy was at home in Hobart in front of the telly, watching the AFL. Ambulance volunteer Gary Alexander had settled back to watch the local kids' sailing races. then a lone gunman opened fire with semi-automatic weapons at the Broad Arrow Cafe at historic Port Arthur. Martin Bryant claimed thirty-five lives that day, and injured many more. Suddenly One Sunday is the true story of that terrible day, as seen and recalled by countless eyewitnesses. Written by Hobart journalist Mike Bingham, and now featuring an epilogue telling how the town and the victims have coped in the years since the tragedy, it is the story that the proud people of tasmania want told, to get the record straight. At once chilling and inspiring, Suddenly One Sunday is a story of courage in the face of tragedy, and strength in the face of mind-numbingly senseless murder.
