'Maggie Lindeman is back in Calingarry Crossing with her teenage son to sell the family pub. Trouble is, the bright girl people once called Magpie is so busy she has no idea a perfect storm is heading her way.

'Maggie’s past includes a schoolgirl crush on Dan Ireland, once the town bad boy. Dan has ample reason for not going home for the town’s upcoming school reunion, but one very good reason why he should – Maggie Lindeman.

'Maggie’s present is a restless seventeen-year-old son, a father with dementia, a fame-obsessed musician husband, a dwindling bank account and a country pub that just won’t sell. An unexpected arrival is a houseguest for the summer – Fiona Bailey-Blair blows into town hoping to find her father – and it seems the school reunion is a good place to start looking.
