Anyone that was at that party in the forest
needs to come in for an interview.
Do it willingly.
Do it quickly.
Adam. Adam. Adam, don't!
- Adam! - Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Where is she?
My sister.
Tell me!
She's gone, mate.
She was last seen up at the party.
But why would she go to the mill?
That's what we're trying to ascertain.
There's no sign of her vehicle.
Right.
We'll be keeping you informed, as much as we can.
As anything relevant comes to hand.
Ah.
We're gonna need to interview you again.
And Adam as well.
Yeah, of course. Of course.
Eliza?
Time you went home.
We won't let you down, Max.
Okay?
I promise you.
If there is someone responsible,
we'll catch the bastard.

For fuck's sake, Fergus.
It's not an official homicide yet,
and you go making promises to the victim's family.
Well, someone knows something. She didn't just end up there on her own.
What if we never find out who that was, huh?
What if we do and it's even worse?
It's their son, Adam.
Adam? Why would Adam
- murder his sister? - Or Max did it. Bashed her head in.
You'd enjoy telling Barbara that?
I'll do what I have to do.
Mate, the girl's dead.
It's too late to be the hero.
Okay, let's start with making a list of everyone that was at the party.
Loggers, greenies, locals.
I know some of them have priors.
Macca for starters and...
there's a few other blokes round here with history.
Who, Lofty?
Isn't he Roy's number one patsy? Did you inherit that with this job?
Roy was just doing his job, okay?
And so am I.
Hey.
You're Chloe's mate, aren't ya?
Yeah.
You knew her better than anyone.
She was my best friend.
Who was her worst?
I dunno.
She was fighting with that Anna woman at the party.
Fighting?
What? Physically fighting?
Yeah.
I already told you all that.
She's weird, I reckon.
Yeah, well, she has her fans.
Come on, jump in. We'll give you a lift.
Nah, I'm all right.
...already volatile situation...
...battle between the loggers and the greenies.
- Come on, Pop. - Mm.
The body of missing teenager, Chloe Holloway
has been found at the local saw mill.
Police have refused to comment on the cause of death at this stage.
But they've asked anyone with information to come forward.
The teenager was last seen at around 11:00 PM,
at a party up in Kettering Forest, where greenies were celebrating the...
Dane?
- Comin'. - While there has been
no speculation of foul play, some questions still remain
on how the teenager managed to get from the forest to...
Dane?
Is that your Chloe they're talking about?
Get in.
Interview with Miss Anna Macy,
commencing at 9:45 AM, Tuesday the 11th of August.
Senior Constable Fergus McFadden, Senior Detective Brian Dutch.
Can you tell us when you last saw Chloe Holloway.
The party in the forest.
We drove up there together.
Chloe wanted to stop off.
She had packets on her.
Packets of what?
Drugs.
You saw them?
She had packets in the car.
I think it was ecstasy.
How did you know it was ecstasy?
She was saving up to leave town.
She was selling for someone.
It would help us if you answered the question Miss Macy.
How did you know it was ecstasy?
Doctor.
I didn't.
Just assumed.
Did Chloe say who she was selling for?
- No she didn't say. - Look...
you were seen down the wharf at 3:15 in the morning, walking your dog.
- It's my father's dog. - Why would you do that?
I had jet lag, I needed a walk.
- What time did you leave the party? - I think it was around 12:00.
- How'd you get home? - I walked.
- It's a long walk. - It's a bit of a blur, really.
- What do you mean by blur? - As I said I was jet lagged.
- What time'd you get home? - I didn't check the time.
- How'd Chloe seem, when you left her? - Seem?
What was her state of mind?
- She was intoxicated. - Look, remind me...
You took the dog for a walk, what
- time'd you get home from the wharf? - Around 4:00.
You checked what time you got home from walking the dog.
- Yes. I wanted to keep track. - Why's that? Of what?
Time.
- Anna? - Excuse me?
Jesus, Fergus, sort that out, will ya?
Fergus, I've been trying to call you.
Roy, what do you think you're doing?
Look, you know you can't just barge into the interview room.
Why is Anna in there?
We're just doing our job, okay?
We have to talk to everyone that was at the party.
Well, she needs a lawyer in there with her.
No one's been accused, no one's been arrested, all right.
- I want her out of there. - She hasn't requested a lawyer, Roy.
Senior Constable Fergus McFadden has just re-entered the room it's... 09:51.
I hardly knew Chloe Holloway.
She was a baby when I left.
Is that before Roy smuggled you off the island?
- He didn't smuggle with me anywhere. - Well, maybe you can explain
- what happened? - I don't know.
Can you tell us what you and Chloe were fighting about at the party?
- There was no fighting. - There are witnesses
who say the opposite.
They saw an altercation.
They're lying.
What about you and Gillian Baxter?
The girl who went missing 15 years ago.
You're half sisters, right?
Anna and Gillian, no that's not true.
Of course, it's true.
Isn't it?
I don't see what this has got to do with Chloe.
Oh, I think it has everything to do with her.
Anna, wait.
You just said in the interview that you left the party at 12:00,
and a few days ago you told me you got home at 11:00.
11:00 or 12:00, what's the difference?
What's the difference? It's a big bloody difference.
Can I stay with you?
I can't stay with Dad.
Is it true?
You and Gillian were sisters?
Roy never said anything, no one said anything.
Guess it wasn't something he was very proud of, Fergus.
- Where are you going? - I don't know.
Why didn't you tell me you were down at the wharf?
- Do you tell me everything you do? - I need to know, Anna.
Wait...
Thank you.
It'll only be for a night or two.
You know the funny thing?
The only person who actually wanted me to stay in Kettering was Chloe.
- Hey, Lofty. - Hey.
Chloe would be really happy that you're wearing the beanie.
Do you wanna drink, Lize?
I'm all right.
Hi, Mum.
Searching since Friday.
With echoes of the disappearance of Gillian Baxter 15 years ago,
the body of the girl, 17 year-old Chloe Holloway, was found this morning
- at the local wood mill. - No, Roy.
The cause of death is unknown at this stage
and locals have being urged that if they have any information
to contact police.
Renae.
- You should go home. - I gotta go see Barb.
I should be with my sister.
Can't he have a shandy?
Hey, Sharon.
Craig.
Thanks.
How ya goin'?
How do you think?
Yeah...
So what brings you into town?
Protecting my daughter.
You're never around.
That'd be first, wouldn't it?
- Mum... - Don't tell me what to do.
Why don't you go sit with your father?
Hey, Dane.
How're you holding up, mate?
All right.
You got a minute for a quick chat?
I'm really busy.
How long had Chloe been dealing drugs for?
I gotta work.
Okay, look... I'm sure that Deb wouldn't mind if you took a couple of hours off
and came down to the station to make a formal statement.
But you know, that...
might make you look like a suspect, so it's up to you.
I don't know how long for.
Oh, fuck...
not long.
- She got some stuff from Hobart. - What stuff?
- Ecstasy. - Who did she get it from?
We broke up, she hardly spoke to me.
- Were you angry about that? - Why would I be?
I... I dropped her.
Did she ever mention...
did she ever mention being scared of anyone or...
Nah.
Where'd you go?
After the party the other night.
Dutch asked me to help him secure his boat.
- Because of the storm. - What, down at Franklin Shed,
- where the old boys play poker? - Yeah.
Ask him, he'll tell ya.
Thanks.
Come on. Do you good.
Hey.
Come on, darlin'.
Various bruises and cuts to both sides of the body.
Broken collarbone, broken foot.
Slight burns to the face.
And there's discolouration which could indicate...
poisoning or drugs.
Organic matter under the nails, in the hair.
Which at this point appears to be forest foliage.
She was moved.
Or, she moved herself.
I can't say until after the autopsy.
I would estimate the time of death to be somewhere around 3:00 AM.
And the cause of death?
Couldn't say that either definitively.
There's blunt force to the head, obviously trauma.
I'll need to run a full toxicology.
What about the marks?
Never seen anything like it.
Adam.
Adam!
Look mate, the police said this morning that they wanna interview all of us.
Including you.
- W-why me? - Well, you know why, mate. You were
- up at that party with your mates. - So?
Do... do you want a hug?
Nah.
Look...
your mum and I have been thinking...
and we think that your sister would have wanted to...
Your sister would...
So, work's stopped then?
- Uh, y-yes, for the moment. - Well, how bloody long?
Well, I dunno, mate.
Your greenie mates'll be rapt.
Fuckers got exactly what they wanted.
You're home early.
Still in shock. Can't believe what happened.
I saw her and...
Hi.
Fergus gave me a key.
He lets me take a shower here,
after work... sometimes.
- Right. - Easier than going all the way home.
He's not here.
Are you staying here?
No. Just for a while.
On the couch.
Can get to you when you know 'em.
Have you got any hobbies?
You gotta have something in this job,
or it'll kill ya.
But me, I'm gonna be a winemaker when I grow up.
And if that doesn't work out I can always be a
pisshead cop like me old man.
Last at the party at 11:00.
Dead at 3:00.
I don't think she fell.
I mean, Jesus, did you see the size of those logs?
How did she get under there?
How did you know?
About Anna and Gillian being sisters.
- Figured it out. - Bullshit.
Is that why you got it in for Roy Macy?
What?
Oh, 'cause he screwed around on his wife.
Why would I give a shit about that?
- Well, what then? - Ah, I got my reasons.
So it's payback.
I call it karma.
Dad.
Hey.
Lize...
I'm sorry I lost my temper with your mum.
She just frustrates me, you know?
Dad...
I was wondering if I could come live with you...
at yours.
It's just that with Chloe gone it's...
Lize, I just...
I just think you're better off staying put.
You know I got mum and dad to look after and...
I'm gonna be out a lot.
This... bloody thing's thrown everyone for six.
I understand, Dad.
Take care, Lize.
I didn't even know that she was goin' to that party.
Well, we can't keep track of them all the time.
That'll happen, you know.
You beat yourself up.
Drive you crazy.
People.
People we hardly know, they'll come around. They love it.
Like vampires feeding at the grief.
What are you talking about?
The injustice.
What injustice?
I don't need you to try and make this better, to try and make me feel better.
There's nothing to sort out, there's nothing to try and get through,
there's nothing, there's just... shit.
I used to look at you and think that that was the worst thing...
the not knowing.
- It is. - No, it's not.
I've got nothing now.
Nothing.
Least you've still got hope.
- ♪ Over and over... ♪ - WENDY: Gillian, you have to go home
- now. Anna has homework. - No, I don't.
- Gillian, go. - It's fine, I'll go.
- Why don't you like her? - It's her mother I don't like.
Why? I like Renae.
I told you before, Anna.
I don't want her in my house.
If Renae had any decency she'd...
she'd leave town.
Gillian's my best friend.
I don't want her in my house!
Mum, can you open the door?
Get the fuck out of here!
Go on. I know you want to live with your father, so go on.
Go off to the Graysons' if you love 'em so much!
Go!
I don't want you here!
_
Aren't you gonna answer it?
- Where'd you found the bed? - Garage.
Sandra came and she used her key.
What happened to Chloe?
Sandra?
Do you know how she died?
Can't discuss any of this with you.
- Sandra still here? - No.
She just helped me pump it up.
She didn't know the first thing to do but her ex-husband, Macca,
used to take her camping.
Jesus, don't judge me, okay?
You know what this place is like. We're trying to keep it quiet.
Can you please just tell me what happened to Chloe?
If I did know, I wouldn't tell you, and I don't.
Would you like a beer?
Jesus, Anna!
Fuck's sake, I could lose my job.
I've seen those before, those markings, I saw them on a boy in the clinic.
She didn't die from a rash!
Okay?
How did she die?
I'm going to bed.
I'm sorry, Fergus.
Fergus?
Anna, can you go to bed, please?
What the fuck?
Sandra?
The boy the other day with the marks on his skin,
what's his address?
Not going there again, are we?
Chloe Holloway...
she had the same markings.
- The same? - Yes.
It's vital that I see him. I need to get a blood sample.
I'm not supposed to give out addresses.
There's lots of things that aren't supposed to happen here, Sandra,
but they do.
_
You're not gonna take him away?
No, I promise you.
I'm a doctor, I want to help your son.
Nothin' I can do about Kade.
Got my hands full as it is.
Think we should take a blood sample just to be sure.
What? Like a needle?
Yes.
How did Kade get those marks?
The rash? Dunno.
Told him not to go out at night, but he doesn't listen to me.
It's not my fault.
Said he didn't even know he'd left the house.
Do you sometimes wake up and you don't know where you are?
And lots of time's gone past.
Kade, when you wake up, are you always in the same place?
Go on, tell her.
By the forest.
Mother Sullivan's Ridge.
It's where those fuckin' lights are.
See, it's just a prick. Like I said.
They're looking for you, you know.
The coroner believes that Chloe's death was probably caused by trauma.
Trauma?
An impact to the head.
Oh, God.
Oh, no.
So, it was murder?
I don't think we should jump to any conclusions.
The coroner says...
there's evidence of skin discolouration.
- Was she ill at all? - No, she wasn't ill. She was fine.
And what about her mood? Did she seem depressed or low,
on the night of the party?
I didn't see her.
They're gonna cut her open, aren't they?
Barb, the autopsy has to be a part of the process.
I promise you they're taking care of her.
I want to see my daughter.
- I want to see my baby. - You don't want to see her like this.
You really don't.
Can you think of anyone?
Anyone that may have wished Chloe harm.
No.
Did she mention anything?
You know, think back in the arguments.
Words she might have had with someone.
She had a big mouth like me, but...
No one hated her.
You know what she was like.
How about you two?
Any altercations?
- Anyone threatened ya? - Yeah.
Every bloody greenie who stepped foot in the forest.
Why aren't you talkin' to them?
Max?
I, um...
I got some letters.
What letters?
What'd they say, Max?
- They were just bullshit. - What did they say?
- I don't know, just stupid things. - Were they threatening?
- Well, no different to usual. - Why didn't you say anything?
How many have you had?
I've had five since March.
Wait.
"Leave the forest alone or justice will cut you down."
"The truth will raze you."
"All you care about will tumble and fall with you."
"You cannot hide."
"You cannot run."
"The forest knows what you have done..."
"You have fucked up."
"And your family will pay for your sinister crimes in the forest."
Fuck it!
...like some sort of metallic...
it's like... if it's not an aircraft... it's not...
_
Delta, Tango, Juliet.
Do you know what kind of aircraft... I got you to... military aircraft.
Oh, shit!
Fuck!
♪ Now I don't hardly know her ♪
Argh! Fuck!
Doh!
Argh!
Ohhh!
Argh!
Jesus Christ.
Adam, can you hear me?
Lift your hand, let me see.
Okay, I'm stemming the blood flow. Do you understand, Adam?
What?
Doing really well, Adam. Really, really well.
Okay.
I think someone's here.
Did you see him? Ah!
That's good.
Hold tight, Adam.
Adam, we have to put you into the car, okay?
- Okay? It's okay, lets... come on. - Yeah.
Let's go on three. One...
two... three. Come on.
Adam?
Adam? Adam, come on.
Come on, Adam.
Help. Help.
Help!
Help me!
Help.
What were you doing out there?
Just make sure he's strapped in.
Did you see anything back there?
Only what you saw.
I'll be back.
This is Adam.
He has an hyphemic rupture, secondary to a femoral artery
- laceration from a chainsaw. - On three.
- I tourniqueted it so I didn't have to - One, two, three.
interact with direct pressure.
Stay with us, mate. You'll be right.
He's lucky.
Maybe there's a reason you came back after all.
Thank you.
I'm so sorry.
Why did you ask if Chloe had nose bleeds?
No reason.
Because I found some blood on her pillowcases a few times and I just...
I just... just thought she'd cut herself.
No one teaches you how to be a good mother.
I thought I'd... have more time.
What have we done, Max?
Why are we being punished like this?
Max?
Max.
My boy.
_
MAX: Roy?
Roy!
Jesus, Max, calm down.
Somebody knows.
Nobody knows.
My family was threatened, and now
- my daughter's dead. - Come on, come inside.
It must be someone who knows what's up there,
what we've done.
No one knows.
Grayson does.
I think it's him.
You have a visitor.
Look, Wendy.
Your daughter's here.
Your mother hasn't moved in years.
Unfortunately, she can't see or hear you.
Hi, Mum.
It's me.
It's Anna.
I'm back.
- I thought I'd come and see you. - _
Where did you get this?
I didn't make this.
Can you hear me at all, Mum?
Look at your hair.
It's a bit of a mess, isn't it?
Hello?
Anna.
Mum?
