On the night of 29 September 1969 an earthquake registering a magnitude of 6.3 on the Richter's scale hit the small picturesque town of Tulbagh in the Western Cape, South Africa. In an area that is not prone to earthquakes, the ground shook, tore and left a prominent scar. A scar that was running unbroken through the town and leading right up to the church, where it stopped, leaving the worship building unharmed.

What is to unfold on these pages is the story inspired by real-life events. It does not carry real names and biographical events, but our subjective interpretation of them.
