When two-year-old Benjamin is lured away from his mother at a shopping centre and brutally murdered, the last people anyone would suspect are two little boys ... Ten years later the perpetrators are released under new identities, living within the community they tore apart. With a hostile media determined to expose them and a grieving father vowing to avenge his child, just how long can their secret remain hidden? Focusing on the aftermath of a shocking crime, Jane Jago challenges our ideas of childhood innocence and addresses the human need to comprehend what drives the worst in us all.
