Will the Truth Come Out Before Someone Gets Hurt?
Led my mysterious sounds, Patrick McWaid stumbles upon a group of aborigines in the midst of a nighttime corroborree at Dingo Creek. The elaborate story-dance fascinates Patrick, who stays to watch until an angry band of settlers burst in to arrest two aborigines for stealing horses.
Seeing the unfair way the native Australians are treated, Patrick and his sister, Becky, befriend them and set out to uncover the truth about the horse thefts. But things get out of hand when Patrick is challenged to a "friendly" cricket match between the expert Echuca team and the aborigines. Without thinking, Patrick accepts, even though he and the aborigines don't know the game! Can Patrick and Becky unmask the real thieves before the cricket match turns into an all-out battle?
