Jimmy Porter has moved to stay with relatives in central Australia - the harsh red centre of the country. Outback life in 1927 is tough, and communication with anywhere is nonexistent. Jimmy gradually begins to appreciate the beauty and the wonder of the outback - and of the resilient people who live there. But when disaster strikes and he and his cousins have to trek for help, Jimmy witnesses just how important the new Flying Doctor Service is.
