Sam, a teacher, is out of favour for expressing controversial opinions. Lydia's young friend Lenci fears the darkness in the human heart. Tom, an academic on sabbatical, thinks Australian historians have turned their backs on difficult issues and individuals. <br>There are obstacles to progress. Squatters with records of past events are not inclined to share them. Interested locals are impatient for a progress report.
