Gladys Berejiklian's political trajectory saw her lead Australia’s largest state through catastrophic times. But one question at a press conference began to unravel that and led to an ICAC investigation which would find that she breached public trust and found her guilty of serious corrupt conduct. 

The reporter who asked that question was Paul Farrell, from ABC Investigations. He is the author of a new book Gladys: A Leader’s Undoing.
