Twenty-eight miles off the coast of Lands End lie the Isles of Scilly. Although blessed with beauty and tranquillity, the islands are not so well endowed with natural resources. In particular, there can be a lack of fresh water, and this is what brought Donovan Wilkins to the islands.
Don is a water diviner and his ability to find underground streams has, in the past, transformed the lives of many of the islanders. Now it is time for him to return, as there's business afoot. A new hotel needs his services, and Don wants to visit a friend, the Old Man of Gugh; not an islander, but an ancient stone to which Donovan the diviner feels strangely attracted.

The first of a ten-part series on people and cultures at the cutting edge of a rapidly changing world.
"They're bar-girls. It's true that they make their livings on their backs. But one of the reasons is that they'd like to marry an American serviceman and escape the poverty of this country. Kind of like Suzi Wong joining the PTA, you know."
(US Navy Pilot)
Olongapo City in the Philippines is like a two-way street. At one end is Subic
Bay, the largest US navy base in the Pacific, and at the other a line of massage parlours, bars, discos, pool-halls and short-time hotels. Fifteen thousand young and pretty Filipinas work the strip, catering for the 'rest and recreation' needs of the US Fleet.
Dave is a US pilot. For him, Subic Bay means 'living the good life in the tropics'.
Rose is one of the bar-girls who dreams of marrying an American sailor. The dream comes true for over 1,000 Filipinas every year, but for many the way they earn their living has disastrous consequences.
