Grazier Maddy Rainforth lives and breathes wool - and not just any wool, the finest Merino wool that can be grown. Maddy dreams of a day when her golden fleece is the toast of the country, but it's going to take everything she and her family can offer - and sometimes a bit more, when the country that gives so much bounty can also take it away. Battling the unforgiving elements takes her all - from devastating drought to deadly bushfires and suffocating dust storms and more - as well as the demands and heartbreak of war, and the expectations of an industry run by men. Inspired by her family's heritage, Maddy travels to the highlands of the Scottish Isles to trace ancient techniques, and begins to produce her own unique, woollen fabric in colours drawn from the country around her. Soon Australia is riding high on a wool boom - and as haute couture in Europe rises from the ashes of war, Maddy's fleece and fabric is in demand. And now the prestigious Paris Wool Prize - which has launched the careers of the most famous designers in the fashion world - is knocking on Maddy's door.
