Caroline Grills was the kind of woman who looked like she'd give you a big hug and wipe away your tears. With her warm smile, dumpy frame and thick black rimmed glasses she was the textbook definition of a caring mother, grandmother and in law.

But she wasn't.

Behind that deceiving exterior, Caroline was hiding a secret, one that she was hoping would wipe out her in laws....one cup of tea at a time.

Join Belinda over a cuppa or two as she goes back to Sydney, Australia, and to the late 1940's/early 1950's, where, thanks to an almost undetectable poison being readily available, one woman was comforting her ailing relatives..... as she was slowly killing them.

It's the 26th January, 1966, and it's a stinking hot summer's day in Somerton Park, South Australia, and hundreds of beach goers are cooling off at popular Glenelg Beach. The Beaumont Children, Jane aged 9, Arnna aged 7, and Grant aged 4, were amongst them, enjoying a swim and a play before catching the 12:00 o'clock bus back home, their mother Nancy waiting for them....

Only they didn't get off the 12:00 o'clock bus, nor did they get off the next one at 2:00 o'clock, and soon Nancy and the children's father Jim, were living every parents worst nightmare and reporting their three precious children missing. Soon enough the whole of Australia knew about these missing children and then the world, and despite all the attention their disappearance garnered and eye witnesses who saw the children at the beach that day, it appeared they simply vanished without a trace.

Join Belinda over a coffee or two as she takes a deep dive into Australia's longest running missing person's case - The Beaumont Children.
