Ruby doesn't like working for the Wilsons. She wants to go back to Alice Springs to live with her mum. Will Idris, the Afghan boy who works with the camels, help her to return home? Kirsty Murray has written an exciting story about life in central Australia at the turn of the twentieth century, inspired by a photograph of camels and their driver taken by Herbert Basedow in Oodnadatta in 1903.
