What chance has one fourteen year old girl got to save the remote forest home of the rarest animals on earth when the forces of international smuggling, logging and tourism are ranged against her? Set in the beautiful and austere landscape of western Tasmania, this is a moving and magical story of courage and love, of loss and life regained, and of how one person really can make a difference.
