1895 in Central Queensland and, with the country in turmoil, a young city poet and journalist travels to a remote sheep station to track down a political agitator. When the clashes between union shearers and landowners turn to violence, a man is found dead in a billabong. Was it suicide or murder?

After a road accident on the highway, a young man finds himself trapped in a strange, remote town where nothing ? and no one ? is as it seems.
Having car trouble then seeking help in a remote town is a very overused idea. Avoid vague phrases like "where nothing ? and no one ? is as it seems", and instead tell us more about who the main character is, his strength and flaw, what the threat in the town is, and what he must do to overcome it.Read more

There are two interesting story ideas here: tracking down a political agitator, and solving a murder mystery. Which the main story? I'd focus on describing only the main one. Also, who's the main character, the poet or the journalist? What is his strength, and flaw? Why is tracking down an agitatorRead more

Also, who’s the main character, the poet or the journalist? What is his strength, and flaw? Why is tracking down an agitator or solving the murder mystery important to him? Including this will make the reader care more about the outcome.
Opening with “1895 in Central Queensland”? Not sure who this is for, but for the younger crowd: ZZZZ. Perhaps, to draw them in, you should start with the story first, then mention the time and locale at the end. Once they’ve read a solid hook, they won’t care as much.
