The premiere episode follows Northern Territory Coroner Greg Cavanagh, as he investigates the mysterious death of 17-year-old Ben Witham, a death attributed to arsenic poisoning at Witham’s family home, the Mount Bundy Cattle Station.

As Cavanagh is forced to close down the cattle station, a popular tourist destination, what he goes on to uncover during his inquisition is truly astonishing, bringing in to question the validity of two previous government investigations across two state borders that nearly destroyed the grieving Witham family and crippled their business
