Trigger warning This episode contains themes of sexual abuse, child murder & suicide.

This month Marti covers the Wanda Beach murders which happened in 1965 in Cronulla Sydney, when two young teenage girls caught the train to the beach with their siblings and never came home.

The murders of Christine Sharrock & Marianne Schmidt.
We also talk about one of Australia's most prolific serial killers.

We of course also talk about what we are watching, his Highness Micheal Sheen, lone shoes & weird things found on beaches!
