In Melbourne, a young woman abandons her baby girl, wrapped in a shawl, in the Victorian Art Gallery. The only clue to the baby's origin is the shawl's motif which links her to an ancient rock painting in the Kimberley.
In Los Angeles, a movie producer's dying daughter is linked to the Kimberley for very different reasons. Her life has been haunted by nightmares since returning from her stay in Australia.
And it is to the Kimberley that former Catholic nun Beth Van Horton brings a disparate group of travellers including a Queen's Counsel, a retired judge, an ABC radio journalist, an art broker and hot-shot lawyer Susan Massey.
The Kimberley - a land that cradles Australia's ancient treasures - is the sanctuary of the mysterious spirits reflected in the oldest rock art in the world. And home to a people whose powerful secrets could unlock the future for modern mankind.
