In the gold rush of 1946, the quiet town of Leonora is rocked by murder.
An indigenous woman is killed and her death almost goes unnoticed by authorities but for one man, Constable Terry Pocock. He befriends Willy, Leonora's sole Wongi tribesman who fought for Crown and Country.
If only Willy will tell.
It isn't until the body of an old white prospector is found down a mine shaft that the outside help arrives. Terry employs the support of the district detective, Tony Cook. Unsure of his surroundings, relying on his good nature and acceptance of all people, Tony starts to peel back the layers of mystery and deceit.
He learns that gold lies not only in the land but somewhere in the people that live within it. But ...
Something sinister hides in the town, and it's up to Tony to find it.
Will he find it before the murderer has the chance to kill again?
