Just as she has become resigned to spinsterhood [Dorothy Baisey] marries lusty Tim Davison, owner of a sheep station. The difficulties of her marriage are outweighed by a growing love for the stark beauty of Carrawarra, the station which she eventually has to manage. Disillusioned by her children, it seems that nothing else remains...until the dawn of a new hope arises in her grand-daughter Stevie, who comes like the 'maiden phoenix' out of the ashes of the past to be the Bird of Wonder.'
