The Shocking Crime
The story begins in 1978 when two lifeless bodies, bound and weighted down with engine parts, are discovered in the sea off the coast of Guatemala. The victims, Chris Farmer and his girlfriend Peta Frampton, were crewing on a yacht when they were thrown overboard. Miraculously, they were still alive, clinging to life.

The Pursuit Begins
For almost four decades, Chris's family painstakingly gathers evidence against the boat's skipper, Silas Duane Boston, a Californian who was suspected of murdering the young couple.

At one point, he even becomes a prime suspect in the notorious Golden State Killer case, sending shockwaves throughout the nation. However, DNA eventually clears Boston of that particular crime.
