"We totally believe they were murdered.”
Sandra Annetts, 2009
During the hot Kimberley summer of 1986 two teenage boys set out for the seismic maze of the Great Sandy Desert. Months later their dismembered bodies were found. Wild dogs had chewed the flesh from their bones; desert camels had sucked out the marrow.

Twenty-three years later Norm Barber returned to the Kimberley to record the story not previously told.
