Dead in
the Water
In July 1978, the bodies of junior doctor Chris Farmer and his girlfriend Peta Frampton were found floating off the coast of Guatemala. They had been tortured, bound and weighed down with engine parts. In a last letter to loved ones, they wrote that they were due to sail to Honduras with an American and his two sons. Almost 40 years after the trail for their killer had gone cold, the Facebook page of an elderly man on the other side of the world provided a shocking breakthrough.
This tense and atmospheric series from Raw, makers of Vatican Girl, reveals how a British journalist, Penny Farmer, battled to identify her brother’s killer. Packed with extraordinary twists, it charts the story of how Penny tracked down boat captain Silas Boston, and his two sons Russell and Vince, to finally uncover the horrific truth about what happened to her brother.
