1. Wild Place
Set in 1989 suburban Australia, a teenage girl’s disappearance ignites rumor-fueled paranoia and the era’s Satanic Panic, prompting a local teacher to launch an obsessive, ill-advised investigation. As suspicion ricochets through the neighborhood and the nearby bushland grows central to the mystery, secrets, rivalries, and adolescent transgressions surface. The result is a tense portrait of fear and complicity in a seemingly ordinary community, culminating in a devastating, surprising reckoning.
