When Englishman Corby Morgan and his wife Jessie set sail for the golden shores of Trinity Bay, they dream of an easy life in paradise. But they are in for a surprise: "Providence", the sugar plantation that is to be their home, is far from what they were expecting. . .

With superstitious labourers, virtual savages from the South Sea Islands, "Providence" offers danger and excitement for Corby and his family. Mike Devlin, the Australian manager, is tested beyond endurance by his new master and, against his better judgement, finds himself increasingly drawn to the owner's gentle and intelligent wife. As Jessie becomes more and more involved in the running of "Providence", befriending the Aborigines and labourers alike, her coquettish sister Sylvia pursues her own selfish goals. And Corby proves himself to be a weak and devious man . . .

Facing a shocking introduction to plantation life, and battling racial conflict and political upheavals, the planters of "Providence" are unprepared when nature strikes a fearful blow. And they must confront the realities of this turbulent existence before making the difficult personal decisions that lie ahead.
