When Home and Away returns on Monday 8th January 2024, the search for missing Eden begins, as 20 new photos show the dramatic storyline kick off.
The drama series Home and Away’s 2024 season debut takes up just where yesterday’s dramatic Australian cliffhanger left off, with Cash (played by Nicholas Cartwright) frantically looking for his fiancée Eden (Stephanie Panozzo), who vanished.
Eden Fowler, bass guitarist for Lyrik, was last seen slinking into the bush to relieve himself during the waning seconds of a suspenseful season finale after being whisked off on a romantic camping trip at the gorgeous Crystal Gorge.
She had to abandon her nocturnal toilet expedition when she came upon two men in the dead of night excavating a trench. Eden was taken by surprise, rendered unconscious, and forced into an unidentified vehicle.
Wes (Josh McConville) and Mickey (Travis Jeffery), the males, had earlier collided with Remi’s (Adam Rowland) motorbike due to their distraction while driving through the bush.
After Eden decided the outdoor life wasn’t for her and that she wanted to leave her and Cash’s camping trip early, Remi had been on his way to pick her up.
Remi was knocked unconscious in the crash. Wes checked on him and was unable to find a pulse, leading him to declare that he was dead.
While Mickey implored his friend to call an ambulance, Wes insisted that they needed to bury the body somewhere that nobody would ever find it.
As darkness fell, the pair began digging a hole, before being discovered by Eden, who had left her tent to answer the call of nature.
Wes knocked her unconscious in a panic, then realised he had two bodies to take care of. Before they left, he asked Mickey for assistance in putting her into the rear of their vehicle.
The men drove off into the night, leaving Eden unconscious in the car’s boot. She was horrified to see her closest friend Remi’s lifeless body there.
Twenty brand-new images from Home and Away’s incredible 2024 season opener show that Cash has called in the SES to assist in searching the isolated outback for any trace of Eden.
Cash gets increasingly frustrated when the search turns up blank, especially when SES leader Sabrina (Harriet Gordon-Anderson) tells him that she’s calling her team in for a break.
When Cash gets a call from his sister Felicity (Jacqui Purvis), he’s forced to tell her that her best friend is missing, leading to her rushing down to Crystal George to join in the search.
The sombre search party are completely unaware Eden is being held captive in the middle of nowhere at the mercy of the same men who left her best friend for dead.
When she overhears the men making plans to “get rid” of her, Eden is confronted with a terrifying fate: her time is running out.When Cash later gets a call from Rose (Kirsty Marillier), will it be good or bad news?
Will Cash track down Eden before it’s too late?
2024 also promises new drama, fresh faces and more heart-stopping moments headed to the sandy shores of Summer Bay.
