Description

In 1956, Constable Joseph Levitt is a young and inexperienced police officer. He works in a remote police station in the harsh desert outback of Western Australia.

As he adjusts to his new surroundings, tragedy occurs. An Aboriginal man is found brutally speared to death in his own home.

With the assistance of a skilled Yamatji Aboriginal tracker named Billy Billy, Levitt learns that the killer wore shoes crafted from feathers; bound together with human blood and spinifex glue, rendering the killer virtually unrecognisable.

As the body count rises, Levitt is drawn into a perplexing dilemma. Are these murders the result of a cultural killing assignment by a Wongi tribesman, or is he facing the relentless pursuit of a cunning serial killer?
