Kerry Salter has spent her adult life dodging two things: going home and going to jail. With her girlfriend behind bars and the police not far behind her, she rides south over the border to Durrongo on a stolen motorbike to say goodbye to her dying Pop, meaning to stay a day at most. But Bundjalung country has a way of holding on to people. When she discovers that a corrupt local official means to sell land by the family's river for a prison, the Salters take up the fight and long-buried family hurts resurface, and an attractive white man from her school days complicates things further.
