About this listen
Set against the lush backdrop of the Northern Territory with its vibrant birds and deadly wildlife, this is a chilling and highly evocative family mystery about the wild and dangerous things that can happen in the most remote and untamed corners of our country.
Why would the police come back looking for a dead man?
Young widow Tilly is making a new life for herself, keeping house for the rangers at the Binboona Wildlife Sanctuary in the isolated wilderness of the North-Western Gulf Country. Caring for injured wildlife and helping to run the popular tourist campsite are just the distraction she needs from everything she left behind when her husband, Gerry, and young daughter were lost at sea.
But when the police show up asking questions about Gerry, the peaceful routine she’s built is disrupted as she begins to question what really happened to her family. The arrival of botanist Connor stirs up even more emotion and has Tilly questioning who she can trust. When she and young ranger Luke stumble across evidence of wildlife smugglers on a visit to the local caves, suddenly her sanctuary is no longer safe, and it becomes clear the past has well and truly come back to haunt her.

Disappointingly bland.
The characters were not rounded visually. Some of the plot reached Mills & Boon level when describing relationships. Not one croc in the plot!!

Love my country...
Great setting and a believable story.
Australia has vast areas of emptiness and wilderness.
I’m sure this sort of smuggling goes on and it is sad.
Rangers are important, but their territory to patrol is so vast, that they barely scratch the surface of these problems.
