New Penn mystery for 'Home and Away'

Penn Graham will soon be at the centre of another Home and Away mystery when he disappears from Summer Bay in suspicious circumstances, it has been revealed.

Since his arrival on screen earlier this year, Penn (Christian Clark) has caused nothing but trouble for the town's residents, leaving fans to speculate about the motivations behind his strange behaviour.

TV Week now reports that, in scenes due to air in Australia next week, Penn will have heated clashes with a number of residents before going missing. The only clue left behind is a pool of blood in his hotel room.

In the aftermath of his disappearance, it will be unclear whether Penn left town of his own accord or whether there is a more sinister explanation.

Ray Meagher - who plays Summer Bay stalwart Alf Stewart - commented: "Penn has been terrorising Alf and the people he cares about. There's no doubt he's out to harm Alf. The history between them also means that Alf will find himself a likely suspect if anything has happened to Penn."

John Palmer (Shane Withington), Nicole Franklin (Tessa James), Miles Copeland (Josh Quong Tart), Marilyn Chambers (Emily Symons) and Sid Walker (Robert Mammone) are also expected to be suspects as the mystery unfolds.
