Is she dead or alive?

Fans have been guessing what’s happened to Rebecca White after she was seemingly disposed of by killer nephew Lachlan.

But as the plot thickens next week, it doesn’t look like we will have to wait much longer to find out what’s really happened to the desperate new mum.

After Lachlan appeared to smother Rebecca on 9th August, fans have been left fearing the worst, with some even guessing that the killer has got her body hidden in a suitcase that was featured at the end of the gripping episode.

It’s top secret what Doug reveals, but whatever it is that he has found out leaves Lachlan seriously rattled.

As Lachlan reels from Doug’s revelation, it looks like the killer might struggle to hide his increasingly odd behaviour next week.
