In 1928 Arthur Upfield, Australia’s premier crime writer, plotted the perfect murder for his novel The Sands of Windee. Meanwhile, one of his friends, stockman Snowy Rowles, put the scheme into deadly effect, even before the book was published. This true story resulted in one of Australia’s most sensational murder trials of the 1930’s and catapulted Upfield’s name onto the world stage.

Tonight's "Pick of the Week" on ABC (Aussie like PBS) and gripping true story with wonderful placement in 1930s Western Australian Outback and in Perth.

Loungers watch out for this....engrossing interpretation of life in post WWI Australia and the onset of the Depression...a lot like the novel "A Fortunate Life".
