Synopsis

Behind Laura Gibson is a city skyline of corporate deals, home delivery and a broken marriage. In front of her lies the picture perfect Pearl Bay, a position as the local magistrate and plenty of time to get to know the kids. But Laura is to discover that Pearl Bay is an ordinary town made up of extraordinary people.
