NZ Herald presents: Chasing Ghosts - Murder at the Racecourse Hotel

While The Front Page is taking its summer break, we are shining a spotlight on some of the biggest podcasts and news events from the New Zealand Herald network over the last year.  

Cold cases are relatively few and far between in Aotearoa. And that’s what makes the case of Donald Fraser stand out. 90 years after Fraser was shot dead in his bed at the Racecourse Hotel in Christchurch, questions linger about who was responsible, and why no one was ever brought to justice.

Open Justice journalist Ric Stevens has been looking into this case for over a decade, and in this special series for the Herald’s Chasing Ghosts podcast, does he have an answer to this nearly century-old cold case? 

Listen to the first episode of Chasing Ghosts: Murder at the Racecourse Hotel now, and find the full season in the Chasing Ghosts feed on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts.
