Shooter

ANGUS SCOTSON (POV) is a migrant with a past life in the British Armed Forces. He falls in love with the Northern Territory operating Happy Tours to shoot/catch/photograph feral wildlife and the elusive barramundi. Tourists chance against retaliatory targets. Injuries and deaths persist.
Angus hires ex-army Aboriginal TOMMY WONGAMUNJI who cooks bush tucker and relates dreamtime tales to tourists. Tommy gains access to tribal lands for tours, speaks local dialects, bruised use of English language and his tribal customs.
Angus puts on a weekend fair tour display that turns into a circus ending in jail. American tourists and Mexican drug lords trick Happy Tours to rendezvous with imported drug hauls. Tommy cooks up a special meal with bush herbs and spices to die for when life arrives at the sunset stage.
More criminals turn up.
Angus orders coffee at widowed CAROL's diner and they begin a relationship. His ex-girlfriend MADELINE offloads their daughter CERISE with him for a month juggling life as a tour operator with a stroppy young girl.
Angus and Tommy win a jackpotted syndicate lottery. An Aboriginal's sharing culture alienates a friendship of white and black customs. Madeline arrives to pick up Cerise, who bolts and hides. Madeline calls in the police, welfare and a lawyer.
Angus buys a goat farm, its lagoons stocked with fish and numerous fauna that he calls paradise. Carol sells her diner to be with silly goats.
The drug cartel catches up with Angus, shooting at the homestead and his prized goats. Carol wanders off and becomes lost. DORIS, Angus's mother, arrives unannounced from England.
Angus envelopes a panorama of his friends, the lottery win, the goats and a tropical paradise before the Devil takes another lesson in hunting and drinks Angus's unfinished beer.
