Official synopsis Publisher
Two broke young backpackers are grateful to find fruitpicking work at a farm – but something is strange about the owner and his workers.
Gemma and Hayley hitchhiked for days to reach the remote Llewellyn Farm. Owner Tate Llewellyn welcomes them with open arms.
The weeks go by – a blur of hot days of picking fruit with the other young backpacker workers, parties, campfires and wading beneath waterfalls in the nearby springs.
Apart from the work, it’s blissful, so why do some of the workers seem so nervous? And why do Gemma and Hayley keep having lapses in memory? And why does Tate seem more interested in cultivating his rare greenhouse orchids than anything else? He calls Gemma and Hayley his orchids… his pretty, pretty orchids…
Until the night the girls find themselves on a dark highway…. bruised and bloodied.
How did paradise turn so ugly?
Senior Detective Bronwen McKay and Psychologist Megan Arlotti question the terrified girls. But Hayley and Gemma are telling two very different versions of what happened to them over the past three months.
Which story is the truth and what are the girls afraid to tell?
