Synopsis
By the late 1700s the Aboriginal peoples of Australia have lived in balance with their land for millennia, but ghostly ships are beginning to appear offshore. In Cornwall, Jonathan Cadwallader leaves his sweetheart Susan Penhalligan to sail on the Endeavour, while another Penhalligan is sentenced to transportation. From the penal colony of New South Wales to the convict hulks and ship decks, their intertwined journeys explore love, brutality and the birth of a new society on stolen ground.
