A group of seven carefree siblings and cousins, enjoying a moment of childhood independence as they walked to get ice cream from the shops on a hot Australian summer evening. There was laughter and jokes as they took turns on a bicycle – when without warning the unthinkable.

In the blink of an eye, an alleged drunk driver ploughs his out-of-control ute into the group at more than 100 kilometres per hour. Four young lives were instantly lost by the side of the road at Oatlands in Sydney’s west that fateful day in February this year – not even 10 minutes from their home. Three siblings, Antony Abdallah, 13, Angelina Abdallah, 12, and Sienna Abdallah, 8, and their cousin Veronique Sakr, 11, who now share the same grave. It was a tragedy that rocked all of Australia. The details would break any heart.

Dedicated to honouring the memories of their children, these courageous families open up to Michael Usher in this emotional story no parent can miss.
