Outback Yankee

Marina Shenko is our entrepreneurial heroine. Her Instagram account is packed with selfies taken in front of incredible art that her parents sell at regular auctions. She's not coping with digital detox. If she doesn't reconnect with the world as soon as possible, her social media career will tank. Once she gets back online, she discovers her parents are in huge trouble for committing major art fraud.
All those beautiful paintings she posed in front of?Fake, fake fake!Marina's fame was the main reason her family were found out. She feels responsible for being the crack in the dam wall. But she also feels stupid because - why didn't she know?Outback Brat camp isn't all bad. She has plenty in common with a Jackaroo called Cooper, who knows a fair bit about art himself. He's a lad of many talents and is the rom part of the com.
Cooper too has benefited from fraud, by assuming a heritage that isn't his. Turns out, 'fake it till you make it' is not always great advice. Marina agrees to an exclusive live interview with a Sydney journalist so she can clear her name (and her conscience) before her parents' case begins in a few days. It all goes humiliatingly and publicly wrong. The journalist knows more than Marina does, including the fact that Cooper's family is helping the investigators.
The betrayal hits Marina hard and sends her spiralling into despair. But it gives her time to think about who she really is, and what useful things she could do with her life.
