The Nickols family at Kimba on the Eyre Peninsula were having a hard time after three bad drought years.

The men find a nest of opal dinosaur eggs worth a lot of money .What ensues is some cunning thieves trying to rob them of their money and opal . These men are killed in an accident in a very strange way which makes world news and the opal eggs very famous.
