Andrew King’s father, Roger, returns from the jungles of Brazil and a doting Hetty heaps praise on him. She even plans a reception in his honour, at King Farm and placing Janet in charge. Alec, the elder brother and heir to the family farm, is put in a bad light, when he loans money from the family trust to a neighbor in need. This not only puts a strain on Alec and Roger’s relationship, but their sons, Felix and Andrew are also affected, as they argue over Grandfather King’s fishing basket. Fists fly, lessons are learned and fences are mended between the siblings.
