Tim
Tim was a gorgeous young man with a child's mind. Mary Horton was a middle-aged spinster. Together they were outcasts in an unbending world and then they meet and a forbidden love blossomed.
Mary Horton gazed at Tim. Had he lived two thousand years ago, he might have served as a model for the greatest Apollo of all time: instead he stood in front of her with total nonchalance. Tim's presence, and the special love they share, would alter both of their lives forever.
Adapted from the novel by Colleen McCullogh, best-selling author of Thorn Birds and the Roman trilogy First Man in Rome, Grass Crown and Fortunes Favourites and starring Mel Gibson and Piper Laurie.
