'When the tiger is seen again in the Tantanoola area, young reporter, Eliza Dickens begs her boss for a chance to cover the story. Against his best judgment, he agrees, but Eliza's mother is set against the idea. Eliza's aunt has been a virtual recluse in the town of Tantanoola since a terrible accident twenty years earlier and Henrietta does not want Eliza to meet up with her aunt and find out the terrible family secret. With her father's backing, Eliza sets off. Unable to find anywhere to stay, she ends up at the Hanging Rocks Inn, where Matilda lives. The two women form a bond, but when a man hired to hunt the tiger comes to stay, he and Eliza clash over the tiger's future. A rival reporter makes life very hard for Eliza and an aboriginal [sic] artist she befriends. In the end, Eliza must not only save the tiger from the hunter, a man she falls in love with, but also save Noah from the town's prejudice.'
