Duncan, a bartender on the island of St John, is considering abandoning his bar for greater adventure when Emily Miles, wanders into his establishment. She begins to tell him the story of her life: how she was left at the alter by a fiance who mysteriously disappeared, how she has spent the past twenty years searching for this man, and how she now believes that she has found him in the person of Duncan. Duncan denies this, but to complicate matters Emily's husband, Raymond, offers Duncan $10,000 to pretend he is the man Emily is looking for in the hopes she will finally get over the event. The story twists and turns right up to the ambiguous conclusion: Duncan might be playing along with Raymond or he may actually be the man Emily claims he is.
