WALKER FARADAY, his wife NICOLE and their difficult son JOHN migrate to Australia after the Second World War and buy up cattle stations The Lazy Goat and Dallas Downs next door on opal fields west of Longreach in Queensland. Walker’s uncle CYRUS and wife BONNITA buy neighbouring Candle Downs station. Aboriginal folk, fauna, governesses, opal miners and explorers cruelly disappear on Faraday land. Their remains, plus numerous animals and birds are found dynamited, buried, burned, poisoned or on meat ant nests. Most though are never found, such is the cleverness of the perpetrator.
Trailing for Outback evidence of murders and cruelty over vast acreage comes as opaline as the smokiness clouding precious local opals found about Longreach.
Walker dies mysteriously before son John cruelly argues with mother Nicole for the rangeland's management. John rides his motorbike into a strung up wire on the farm he manages. Fingers point to his wife CAARA or their irritating son GORDON, an exact clone of his father’s sadistic ways. Caara's parents die mysteriously on Nicole Falls. Younger son SIDNEY returns from Naval duties for holidays. Gordon contrives for all four of the Faraday cattle stations. Sister BETH marries WARREN when she falls pregnant. Gordon marries CHEN, a Chinese lass from the same complication. They both demand Caara buys them a house each. KELLY comes onto Lazy Goat to fossick for Opals and spends time with Nicole. Bikers taking time off from mining duties arrive to camp on Lazy Goat.
Governesses are found buried about Caara's farm. Workers and family are systematically poisoned and shot at. Animals are stolen or poisoned.
Tribal natives, bikers, Gordon's father-in-law Hu Bao, brother-in-law Warren, Nicole’s farm managers, Police officers and brother Sidney all scheme for a slice of who-done-it.
