In a post-apocalyptic future where survivors scavenge in the harsh Australian Outback for spoils from a buried civilization, a girl races across the desert, holding her treasures close, pursued by the Reckoner. Riding her sand ship, living rough in the blasted landscape whose taint she carries in her blood, she scouts the broken infrastructure and trades her scraps at the only known settlement, a ramshackle fortress of greed, corruption, and disease known as the System.

Recently released from the orphan’s home and with nowhere to go, Olivia Lester accepts a last-minute proposition to travel west as a mail order bride. Judd Brockman has made it clear that he only needs a wife as a partner on the farm - not in love - and Olivia accepts his wishes. Judd is a kind man, so when Olivia find herself falling in love with him, she chooses silence over breaking her agreement. But when a woman from Judd’s past returns with a scandalous accusation, Olivia begins to wonder if maybe her life with Judd is not what she thought.
