Ireland 1840 to Avoca Beach NSW 1850s

Arriving as refugees from the Irish Famine, can the two girls settle into their new lives in Australia?

Clare O'Shane is tasked with bringing her younger sister to Australia to start a new life in a strange land with some family members she has never met. The sadness of the famine haunts her, and she must come to terms with the responsibility thrust upon her.

Shéamus Connor is the son of the new family's convict cook. He teases Clare mercilessly but secretly loves her. Eventually, he confesses his affection. The story progresses, and an ex-convict woman intervenes in their relationship, and then Clare vanishes. Is it too late for them to find happiness?

John Moore is an Irishman with a reputation for his bad temper. He lives alone on an isolated beachside farm. How does this enigmatic man become so important to them both? He lives in a bigoted community where Catholics and Protestants often clash.

Will Shéamus find his missing love? If so, will she want him back?
