In turn-of-the-century Australia, Tim Shea supports his young family by running a general store in a remote riverside town - where he finds the same hypocrisy and snobbery which made him emigrate from Ireland, and suffers a series of misfortunes which take him to the brink of disaster. Capturing the spirit of the times and place, this is the mesmerising tale of a flawed hero whose stubborn integrity is nearly his undoing.
