Synopsis

You took me away from everything I loved. If you hadn’t taken me away…then maybe it never would have happened. On the New Year holiday, Widow Hazel opens her home on a Northland beach to her adult children – Sully, Anthony, twins Molly and Joe, and their families – who have come together from Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East. But like with all families, there is bad history. Molly is dreading having to spend time with her mother but she is pleased her son will see his cousins, and is looking forward to catching up with her brothers…Joe in particular. A lot can happen over the course of a few days under the summer sun, as family tensions intensify and relationships become heightened. And Molly and Joe will not be the only ones with secrets that must be kept hidden…
