Can the future be changed by learning from the past?


Five years from now, a gas pipeline explodes in Northern Australia. The government calls this an accident. But four Australians know the truth is far more dangerous.

A glamorous current affairs journalist discovers that her complex ancestry demonstrates the folly of war.

A “can-do” Aussie adventurer faces danger to expose the risks implicit in Australia’s military allegiances.
