Tikka Malloy was 11 and one-sixth years old during the long hot summer of 1992, living in an Australian suburb with her sister and their three best friends. That summer was when the Van Apfel sisters, Ruth, Hannah, and the beautiful Cordelia, mysteriously disappeared. Did they just run - far away from their harsh, evangelical parents - or were they taken? While the search for the girls united the small community, the mystery of their disappearance was never solved. Now, years later, Tikka has returned home to try to make sense of that strange moment in time.

Leisel Jones is regarded as one of the greatest breaststrokers ever. At just 15 she won two silver medals at the Sydney Olympics and went on to win gold at Athens and Beijing. For the first time, Leisel candidly describes being thrust into the limelight so young and reveals the constant pressure she was under. Despite the highs of stardom, she suffered severe depression. Body Lengths is the inspiring story of an Australian sportsperson told with humour, optimism and style.

Été 1992, dans une lointaine banlieue de Sydney, en lisière du bush. Un été caniculaire durant lequel une puanteur infecte se dégage du lit de la rivière. Un été que Tikka, onze ans et deux mois, n'a jamais oublié : celui où les sœurs Van Apfel ont disparu. Les trois filles du pasteur - Hannah, l'aînée, Cordelia, la fantasque, somnambule à ses heures, et la petite Ruth avec son bec-de-lièvre - profitent de l'entracte du spectacle de l'école pour se faire la belle et s'évanouir dans la nature. Le corps de la plus jeune sera retrouvé coincé entre deux rochers.
