Shortcut: The Deadly Flinders Highway

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.

The Flinders Highway is an 800-kilometre stretch of road running through Queensland from Townsville to Mount Isa, and over the decades it has been linked to a disturbing number of disappearances and murders. 

On today's episode, we talk about some of the most haunting cases along the highway with investigative journalist, Amelia Oberhardt.
