This gripping documentary explores the crimes of Ivan Milat, the serial killer responsible for Australia's infamous backpacker murders. For years, young travellers disappeared while journeying through New South Wales. Police eventually linked the cases to a single killer who targeted backpackers, leaving a trail of victims across the Australian bush. The investigation took a major turn when British tourist Paul Onions came forward with a chilling story of how he escaped after accepting a lift from Milat. His testimony would become a crucial piece of evidence in one of Australia's most notorious murder cases.
