Synopsis

A victim shrouded in the vastness of Australia’s forests, deserts, foreshore, beaches or suburban landscapes has less chance of being discovered than arguably in any other county in the world.

Shallow graves are often a hole in the sand on a foreshore, or in a forest where the soil is thin enough for the assassin to hurriedly dig a plot, entomb the deceased, and then be on his way before he is caught in the act.

Some killers leave their victims where they have murdered them, covered only in foliage, in the belief that there is little chance that the body will ever be discovered in the remoteness of its mournful resting place. Others leave their prey in bush culverts, aware that the possibility of discovery is remote and that when the rains come, the evidence of their ghastly crime will be swept away, scattered in a riverbed, forever undetected.

And then there are the murders who leave their victims in hiding place in the belief that they will be discovered sooner or later, as if they want the world to know of their grisly handiwork. Like a terrible trophy.

But no matter where the places of concealment May be, they all play a grim part in some of the most mysterious, bizarre and horrendous murder cases in Australia’s history - cases such as the Reid-Luckman murder, the Family murders, the Truro serial murders and the Thorne kidnapping.
