Summary
In 1988, Rudi Bremer's cousin Mark Haines was found dead on railway tracks outside Tamworth — the day after Rudi was born.
Unravel explored Mark's story in our series Blood on the Tracks, culminating in a 2025 inquest into his death.
Now, in a deeply personal episode of the ABC podcast Awaye, host Rudi sits down with Mark's siblings Lorna and Ron Boy, who continue to search for answers about what really happened to their brother.
It's an intimate conversation about what it means to endure an inquest decades after losing someone you love, and you can find the full interview by searching for Awaye on the listen app or wherever you get your podcasts.
For more on this story you can also go back and listen to the Blood on the Tracks series in the Unravel feed.
