It’s the end of the 2020s and Australia struggles under tyranny. The economy has collapsed as terrorism escalates. Conscript Blake Lincoln returns from an endless Middle East war, wounded and a National hero. When he meets Charlotte, all he wants is to forget the war and have his old life back. Instead, he uncovers secrets that will blow the government apart. Watershed is set in Brisbane, Sydney, and Canberra, and takes in the vast wilderness of Cape York, and the raw beauty of the Kimberly region. It is a story about the insidiousness of political corruption, the dangers of social injustice, the fragility of democracy and the power of family, as one man prepares to abandon all he believes in to save the woman he loves.
