But a jealous younger brother and a clandestine relationship with Isabella, an innocent neighbour, make for stormy undercurrents.

Isabella is heartbroken when he leaves to try his luck at the goldfields. Matt’s family intervenes on Isabella’s behalf, but there is trouble and a near-tragedy in store for Matt. When he finally realises how much he loves Isabella, he fears it may be already too late.
