When Constable Morgan is ambushed at a remote desert watering hole and his horse stolen, he turns to a young Aborigine for help in tracking down the outlaw. The story unfolds with quiet tension, grounded in the harsh landscape and the uneasy partnership between two men from different worlds—illustrated with sharp, expressive art by Ed Moore, and a cover by Ed Moore that captures the stark, sun-scorched mood of the tale.
In "Dead Man at Powder Spring," Constable Morgan of the Western Australian Mounted finds himself ambushed at a remote desert watering hole, his horse taken and his mission thrown into disarray. With no choice but to seek help, he teams up with a young Aborigine whose knowledge of the land may be the only key to uncovering the truth.
In "null," young Paul—struggling with his lameness—is brought by his family to Aunt Julie, a local figure known for her old-world wisdom. She tells him that if he dares to walk to the graveyard at midnight, his body may be healed.
