In 1997, in the small (very very small) town of Kalaru, New South Wales, Australia, best friends 14-year-old Lauren Barry and 16-year-old Nicole Collins were enjoying a camping trip over Labor Day weekend. Their parents allowed them to go as long as they came home every day to check in, so when the girls didn't check in when they were supposed to, their parents immediately knew something was wrong.

In 1994, the movie "Heavenly Creatures" was released. It was based on the true story of Pauline Parker and Juliet Hulme. Pauline and Juliet were teenage girls who seemed to be complete opposites to everyone else on the outside of their oddly close friendship and fantasy world, but to each other, they were soulmates. They were so close, that when they didn't get what they wanted, they were driven to murder.
