John 'Boy' Lawrence is growing up in a tropical paradise, but
things are not sunny. He is at the centre of controversy as the son
of a married white landowner, Frank Weston, and his former
employee, Lucille, a local woman. Sent to be brought up by his
grandparents, Boy finds a mentor in his grandfather, Clifton, the
model of quiet dignity who serves as Frank's right-hand man.
Clifton, a well-respected member of the community, strives to pass
on his moral compass to his grandson. However, it becomes more
difficult when Clifton finds himself at odds with his brother
Randolph, who takes a more militant view on the future of the
islanders, and his doctor, Dan, who believes that people can
improve their fates given the proper tools. And when Dan finds
himself in conflict with his best friend, Boy's white, land-owning
half-brother, things quickly come to a head. With everyone set
against everyone else, and no easy answers in sight, Boy's world
seems poised to come crashing down around his ears.
