      Two bullets whizz past Sebastian and Joe during a casual golf game as they discuss reviving their old band. Sebastian suspects the incident relates to Joe's shady past, but after being deliberately run off the road days later, he finds himself targeted by an unknown assailant intent on psychological games. Nightmares of a malevolent wolf hunting him reflect his reality, leaving him fearful and on edge. Amidst the tension, humorous moments arise, particularly during a community meeting where Sebastian and friends stage a coup. Deon, a spirited First Nations musician from Brewarrina, becomes a key ally, saving Sebastian from trouble with his street-smart instincts. Heartfelt dilemmas emerge as Sebastian grapples with feelings for work colleague Frances and estranged wife Astrid, only to discover Frances is not as she appears. As the band's prospects improve, Astrid is taken aback when she hears Sebastian's voice on the radio, singing the very song that once won her heart in Amsterdam. Will this rekindle their romance? The narrative captures the essence of modern Australian life, taking readers on a journey through Sydney, Newcastle, and the surrounding countryside, all while the plot twists and turns.
