Cate Walford's relationship with vicious, business tycoon husband, Phillip, is on the ropes and their tempestuous home life is trapped in a tangled web of lies and manipulation. Through a shocking twist of fate, this dark and murky world collides with the seemingly disparate and disconnected, warm and loving world of a widow and her footy star son and musical daughter.
Set in Northern New South Wales in the period following World War II, the show follows Sarah Adams, who has returned to Australia after twenty years abroad to start a new life and ends up clashing with wealthy matriarch Elizabeth Bligh.
