A RETURN TO AN IDYLLIC CORNISH HOLIDAY HOME - WILL EVERYTHING HAVE CHANGED?

20 years ago, Miranda, then sixteen, holidayed in Cornwall and her life changed forever.

Now she's back again - with her mother Clare and the ashes of her stepfather Jack, whose wish it was to be scattered on the sea overlooked by their one-time holiday home.

The picturesque cove seems just the same as ever, but the people are different - more smart incomers, fewer locals, more luxury yachts in the harbour...

Will Miranda and Clare be able find some familiar faces, and what emotions will this trip down memory lane back bring to the surface?
