Highly improbable plot that is even acknowledged in the book when James, the secret son of Ned Kelly, writes a novel about his existence that is not well received. This forgotten book is believed by one historian who travels from Australia to the Turkish village to try to find out if it was true - no conclusive evidence for him but we have a whole novel to explain what went on.
