The true story of the Reverend Thomas James, a former President of the Methodist Church, who disappears in 1906 while on holiday in Sydney.

A telegram sent to his family by a stranger tells of James' death in a boating accident. Police investigations, however, reveal that the Reverend is far from dead.

The ensuing scandal explodes onto the family living on the Kalgan River in the Great Southern Region, Western Australia. Alan James spent 20 years researching his great-grandfather's story.
