An 11-year old boy fantasises that Japanese prisoners of war in remote Billarooby, Australia, are honourable samurai. Vigilantism, drought and the Armstrong family's darkest past, drive his parents to desperate measures and bouts of madness. A coming-of-age of great poignancy as the story reaches its climax on the dried-up bed of the Lachlan River
