About this listen

When a woman goes missing in Sydney, Australia in 1982, all that could be heard was the cicadas buzzing in the trees. No one was looking for her; not her friends and not police. In Part One of this two-part episode, we'll talk about the beautiful life Lynette Dawson had grown accustomed to before it was all taken from her.
