Synopsis
In the wild Gulf country of northwest Queensland, there's a cattle station - Barra Creek - on a tributary of the crocodile-infested Norman River. It's 1963 and Sally Mitchell, the well-bred daughter of a wealthy New Zealand sheep farmer, is on her way to England with her friend Pru. When the young women stop over in Sydney their plans go awary. Sally impulsively takes a job as a governess at Barra Creek, and when the mail plane that flew there takes off she finds herself left in a different world. -- back cover.
