In an Australian penal colony at the edge of the known world,
gentleman convict Hugh Monserrat has risen from convicted forger to
trusted clerk of the settlement's commandant. Not long after the
commandant heads off in search of a rumoured river, his beautiful
wife Honora falls ill with a sickness the doctor is unable to
identify. And when Honora dies, it becomes clear she has been
slowly poisoned. Monsarrat and perceptive housekeeper Mrs Mulrooney
feel suspicious as regards the motives of Captain Diamond, the
commandant's second-in-command. In a trice Diamond has Mrs
Mulrooney arrested for murder. To save his new friend from the
hangman's noose, Monsarrat must go all out to unmask the real
killer.
