    Released from a Darwin jail after the shock discovery of fresh evidence in the desert, Lindy Chamberlain finds herself at the centre of a media circus once again. But now, her story is going global, immortalised in a Hollywood film starring Oscar-winning actor Meryl Streep. Amid the intense media attention, the breakdown of her marriage and the public’s lingering suspicion, Lindy must continue her fight to clear her name.
