High County is edge-of-your-seat storytelling. With an epic and ancient landscape of conflicting mythologies – set in a part of the Victorian High Country rarely seen on screen and a character of its own. It is a crime drama filled with twists and turns, spine tingling mystery and a harrowing sense of place. Leah Purcell plays Andie Whitford, a detective who is transferred to the town of Brokenridge. Once there, Andie is thrust into a baffling mystery of five missing persons who have vanished into the wilderness. Over eight episodes a complex web of murder, deceit and revenge unravels to uncover a conspiracy dating back decades. Its high stakes and its High Country.
