The story

Eleven-year-old Toss lives on a remote farm in a valley somewhere deep in rural New Zealand with her father, mother and grandfather Birdie. When she witnesses her father's death while out herding sheep, she is shocked to see another man present, who then carries her father's body out of the bush. When that man moves onto the farm and begins a relationship with her mother, Toss sees him as an invader into her isolated world.
