Adam, an Aussie journalist, has always had a penchant for the unpredictable and the chaotic. It is no wonder then, that among the many places he visits, he falls in love with a part of history - a beautiful old town in South India called Kochi, built in the era of the Dutch and Portuguese. An offer by his Australian publishing house to visit and research the culture of Kochi, whets his fascination to learn more of the town and its people, culture, literary standing and dialect. The offer paves the way to a journey that would lead to surprises, treasures, life changing decisions and long standing friends. Adam's passion for the wanderlust and his uncanny penchant for this little town and in particular, one house in it, leads him on a trip of discovery and commitment. Despite the judgement of his very clear headed friends, and adversity in all shape and form, will Adam fulfil his quest and prove that this was no freak accident after all?
