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 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, this is the mesmerizing tale of a flawed hero whose stubborn integrity is nearly his undoing.
