Set in the Victorian mountains, or "high country" as this area of Australia is known, the BBC Two detective series High Country follows Detective Sergeant Andrea "Andie" Whitfield (played by Wentworth star Leah Purcell) who relocates to the area with her partner Helen (Sara Wiseman) and teenage daughter.
She's soon allocated to the case of five missing persons, all of whom have disappeared in the wilderness. This is considered to be a sad "fact of life" by those living in the area, but Andie is convinced there’s more to it. And what she uncovers is a complex web of murder, revenge and deceit.
