Awards for Works

form y separately published work icon Black Snow ( dir. Sian Davies et. al. )agent Australia : Goalpost Pictures Stan , 2022 24259760 2022 series - publisher film/TV mystery

'Black Snow combines the character-driven storytelling of a coming-of-age drama with the gripping mystery of a classic whodunit to create a unique series that is deeply rooted in its unique North Queensland setting. In 1994, seventeen-year-old Jasmine Baker was murdered. The crime shocked the small town of Ashford and devastated Jasmine’s Australian South Sea Islander community. The case was never solved, the killer never found. But in 2019, the opening of a time capsule unearths a secret that puts cold-case Detective James Cormack on the trail of the killer.'
