Molly, Daisy and Gracie are all born of an Aboriginal mother and a white father. Forcibly removed from their family by the Australian government, the girls are taken 1,500 miles to a severe Anglican education camp. There they are trained as domestic servants in order to be 'assimilated' into white society. Molly Craig, the oldest of the three leads her younger sister and cousin in a daring escape back to their home and family.
