Little Potoroo Creek is an area of pristine rainforest, housing many threatened plant and animal species. For Cheryl Bollok, Little Potoroo Creek is a beautiful place she can preserve in photographs and paintings before the loggers destroy it.
Miklos Bollok is a man used to getting his own way. But when he sets out to clear-fell one of Victoria's last remaining wilderness areas, he encounters unexpected opposition. His allies are the powerful timber industry, their spin doctors and hip-pocket politicians. Opposing him is a chaotic mix of conservationists, ferals and squatters, and the one person who knows his darkest secrets - his wife.
In a gripping tale of passion, confrontation and manipulation, not even the reader can escape the conflict.
