Synopsis

Country vet Kate McDonald is battling to keep her community afloat in the face of an unrelenting drought. Forced by necessity Kate hires a new veterinary assistant Jill Blake.

Kate is cranky, difficult to get along with, and to date, has gone through a string of assistants. Jill is her last chance of getting the help she needs.

Feisty, defiant and with a passion to get to the truth, Jill has set herself the task of succeeding under any conditions.

Faced with silence and suspicion, she soon realises the Paringa farming community has a secret which Kate and the Paringa farmers are anxious to keep hidden.

However, Paringa needs the services of both Kate and Jill, and somehow these opinionated women must find a way to work together to battle against the conditions that threaten the very way of life of their community.

In doing so, Jill becomes aware that Kate has a dark secret of her own.
