Tom and Maggie Cabbott, husband and wife from Vancouver, are embarking on a new beginning in the small town of Pelorus, New Zealand. They hope to establish a salmon fishery with some seed money raised by their wealthy and influential father, Frank Cabbott. While this venture is expected to boost the local economy, Tom and Maggie face a primary goal to escape from the control exerted over them by the Cabbotts. One morning, while out kayaking on his own, Tom goes missing. The Chief of Police in Pelorus, Jack McGregor, leads both the investigation into Tom's disappearance and the search for his presumed dead body. This news eventually reaches Vancouver, leading to an unexpected turn when Frank or Nate Cabbott send their forensic accountant, Esther Ishikawa, not to find out what happened to Tom but rather to uncover other activities that may have negatively impacted the Cabbot organization. This situation highlights the complex interplay of family power dynamics and personal aspirations in small towns.
