Clementine Carter, a successful, albeit jaded, Melbourne divorce lawyer, left her Queensland coastal hometown Whale Bay twenty-five years ago and hasn't been back since. But when her Aunt Rose dies and leaves Clem her beach shack and New Moon - a new age shop - she returns to arrange their sale.

Once back in Whale Bay Clem soon discovers that Rose's death might not be the accident she'd been told it was so with the help of some old school friends and town barista Finn Marella, Clem sets out to investigate Rose's death.

With millions of development dollars at stake, can Clem read the clues Rose has left behind and unravel the mystery before it's too late for her too?
