The four-part miniseries are based on dozens of hate crimes, murders, disappearances and suspicious deaths that took place during the 1980s and 1990s in the eastern suburbs of Sidney. All the victims had the common factor that they were young gay men who were lured into remote places and then ambushed and beaten or worse by teenage gangs driven by homophobia, fear of AIDS and a national television campaign against the disease called "The Grim Reaper" which they themselves saw as encouragement for their actions. A few days after the fourth and final episode of this miniseries, SBS broadcasts the documentary "Deep Water: The Real Story" which tells the story of the real crimes, but this aside. For the series, everything starts in 2015 when a mutilated and murdered man is found in an apartment after an emergency call. Two detectives who investigate the case quickly link to a number of facts that took place in the same area some 20 years earlier and are determined, partly for personal reasons, to catch the perpetrators.
