Meet Annie, Rosamund, Helen and Figgy. Four very different women united by a love of swimming in Lyme Regis's beautiful bay. Their friends and families would never place the four of them together (and they definitely have their share of spats), but when the women are taking a bracing dip in the sea, they're happy. But then after a morning swim, two members of the club discover a dead body in another member's car. A body that later vanishes into thin air.

While enjoying their regular early morning swim, the friends discover the body of local artist Clifford Muldoon, floating near Lyme Regis's iconic Cobb. Annie's daughter, DC Tina Abbott, has things under control. But that doesn't mean the swimming club can't help out, as far as Annie's concerned. Or does it?
