Synopsis
A silent traumatised child holds the clue to a callous crime. Who will solve her secret?
Nothing much ever happens in the tiny country town of Table Top, until eight-year-old Rachel Moloney and her mum, Tess, fall victim to a hit-and-run-accident. Strangely, mother and daughter are mysteriously missing from the scene when the local policeman arrives, triggering a huge search and rescue effort- which has mixed success. Sarge leads the investigation into the crime, but the problem is that his only viable witness is a silent child.
Rachel leaves behind the dry paddocks of home for new adventures at the coast, where help is enlisted from expert child therapist, Miss Chris, in Manly, Sydney. Eventually, a non-verbal clue provides the turning point in the criminal case, leading to the identification of the perpetrator. Yet, Tess is in some sort of trouble … and the little witness must learn to trust and talk again.
