The Alice observes a group of strangers coming together in an iconic place for a particular event, only to find themselves caught up in something else altogether.
There's to be a total eclipse of the sun and the perfect spot to view it is in the desert outside Alice Springs.
Planetary forces are indeed at work and they will test the will of four people, who have a date with destiny in The Alice.
Drawn to The Alice all for very different reasons, each of the travellers has a part to play in the unravelling of a murder mystery and each will have cause to linger longer than they ever anticipated in The Alice.
