Within the treacherous caves of Undara, a betrayal will test the bonds of friendship and family. When entomologist Emlyn Rees arrives at Hidden Valley, she wants nothing more than to escape her marriage breakdown by burying herself in the research team's hunt for new species of insects in the depths of the dramatic Undara lava tubes. Little does she suspect she will be the key to solving a mystery that's more than one hundred years old. Travis Carlyle is initially resistant to letting some city academics tramp over his cattle station. Still, soon, the researchers' findings and a growing friendship with Emlyn bring opportunities to turn around his struggling farm. With a broken marriage behind him and children to care for, Travis needs to plan for the future, and this could be his family's best chance. But when things start going wrong for the farm and around the dig site, Emlyn and Travis are at a loss to understand why. Are they cursed with bad luck, or is there a more sinister force at play? Are the tall tales of enigmatic stockman, Bluey true? As the unseen saboteur grows bolder, Emlyn and Travis are caught in a race against time to save the station ... and their lives.

Do you believe in love at first sight? Violet Valentine is heading south for Christmas when her vehicle breaks down on a back road near Bindarra Creek. Fleeing a difficult situation in Brisbane, a broken-down car in the middle of nowhere is the last thing she needs. With no phone service, and resigned to spending the night sleeping rough, she is relieved, and somewhat amused when she is rescued by a dashing stranger on a white horse. Joe Rossiter is riding the boundary fences of his recently purchased property on Sam, his favourite old horse, and is dismayed by the amount of fencing work he needs to do. His mood lifts when he encounters a beautiful woman who has set up camp near his creek. Violet has to wait in Bindarra Creek for her car to be repaired and when the word gets around that she is a horse doctor, she receives an offer of a contract at a local horse stud. But the last thing Violet wants to do is settle in one place or give in to her attraction to Joe Rossiter. Can Joe convince Violet that Bindarra Creek is a place for her to belong?
