In the midst of a rural land-rights struggle, Iris Shaw is a federal conservation officer who is murdered in a bombing by a rag-tag band of right-wing activists. Little do her killers know that Iris wasn''t their only victim, and now, with the help of the Crow, Iris must exact vengeance for her own death, and that of her unborn baby.
