Australian True Crime25 Jun 2023

The father and son who vanished in one of the most remote parts of Australia

This is a story about a man and his young son, Brad and Bevin Simmonds, who disappeared out in Cape York 20 years ago.

How could an experienced fisherman's boat disappear without a trace in broad daylight? In good weather and calm seas? How could everything on board, all the gear designed to float in case it fell overboard, disappear with it, and never, ever show up or wash ashore?

Today we speak to The Cape's producer, Justine A. Rosenthal.

More info:

The Cape is now available to be watched, streaming exclusively on Stan.
