In 1942, as the Japanese invade the Solomon Islands, young trader Tom Scott, aged 22, sees his burgeoning commodity trading business at risk. Amidst this chaos, the British Governor and his wife vanish on a flight returning from the western islands. The Governor's aide, desperate, offers Tom a hefty sum to escort the Governor's three daughters to safety in Australia aboard his 120-foot schooner, 'Paradise'.
En route, Tom discovers he knows where the Governor's plane might be found. Compelled by a mix of duty, curiosity and youthful foolishness, he and the sisters detour to search for the missing couple, putting themselves in the path of the advancing Japanese forces. During this perilous journey, a romance blossoms between Tom and one of the daughters, leading to complications when the parents are found alive. The aristocratic parents, upon rescue, vehemently oppose the match, sparking a bitter feud. They use their influence to threaten Tom's life, setting the stage for a dramatic showdown where love, survival, and the harsh realities of war intertwine.
"Paradise Beyond the Horizon" is a WWII adventure that blends mystery, romance, and humor with historical accuracy, featuring real events and figures from this turbulent time.
