Description

Hallie, a young and successful fashion blogger, recently married to a station owner, is having trouble adjusting to the flies, dust, snakes and isolation in the Flinders Ranges. Left alone with her baby while her husband, Alex is often out on long bore runs during the day, she also has to contend with her father-in-law, Rod, who insists on making himself at home in their house.

Alex is out on a bore run, and as Hallie and their daughter, Ruby, watch him in real time on the camera from the homestead, Alex suddenly disappears from view. He is found later, dead at the bottom of a windmill. A tragic accident, falling from the top - windmills are death traps if they're not treated with respect.

At the funeral, Alex's four close friends from agricultural college reunite. Months later, one of the other friends is found dead in another tragic rural accident.

When Hallie's investigation into Alex and his friends uncovers alarming information, it's up to Detective Dave Burrows and his partner, Constable Mia Worth to discover the truth of these accidents.
