Synopsis "The old Man, the boy and a Wreck"

When octogenarian ex- sugar mill manager, Greg Skipperton, meets his new fifteen-year-old neighbour, Paul Wilson, little does he suspect that a friendship will spring up that changes both their lives. Despite the idyllic seafront location in tropical Fiji, Greg struggles to come to terms with the soulless boredom of a meaningless autumn of his life. His perspective changes when he is dragged into the modern technological age and challenged to unleash his dormant creativity. Inspired and encouraged by The Boy, The Old Man turns his hand to writing a novel that encompasses his experience of the seas. In writing a fast-paced adventure about survival at sea and the moods of the ocean, Greg draws on past acquaintances to depict an individual's greed and the raw courage and resourcefulness under crisis of others. What he does not anticipate is the depths of self-realisation that this experience brings to the author.
