He called it the Cradle. The syndicate called it a resource. The earth calls it a wound. Australia, 1930. To the Richardson syndicate, the deep earth reservoir in the Stuart Range is a payday. To Joanne, it is her father's legacy, a place he named The Cradle of Life, a geological anomaly that defies the standard laws of the interior. But the syndicate's greed has triggered a supercritical blowout. The Cradle is no longer a sanctuary; it is a supersonic vent of brine and steam capable of liquifying the basin. With the corporate experts in full retreat, Joanne and the mechanic Gabe must descend into the heat shrouded valley to perform a feat of desperate engineering. Armed with her father's frantic notes and two abandoned Crossley trucks, Joanne must find a way to siphon the tectonic pressure before the Cradle becomes a tomb. In this robust saga of the Australian outback, the only thing more volatile than the pressure beneath the shale is the truth her father left behind.
