It is about a boy who went through an extraordinary childhood surviving the Japanese occupation of Penang. He encountered a strange event during that time. He heard the bleating of a kid goat that died three days before. It could be called a vision or a calling but thus the event influenced the rest of his life. Though not born of Christian parents, he embraced Christianity when he came of age. He was unexpectedly called to holy office and ordained as a priest of the Anglican Church. He was also unexpectedly sent to China by the Asia-Pacific Telecommunity in 1986 to lecture in Rural Telephone Development. It was at a time when all Malaysian Chinese around his age were barred from visiting China. The story ends with his unexpected meeting of the Queen of England at the Cathedral of St Mary the Virgin, Kuala Lumpur in October 1989.
