Nellie and Charlie find love and build a life together in the thriving new town of Te Moananui. when Nellie discovers her inner power and true voice it threatens to destroy their relationship, their family and Charlie's dream of life without ties to the past. With only a suitcase, a bottle of Coruba and a packet of cigarettes, 16-year-old twins Janey-Girl and May set off with their siblings Pearl, Joe and Bubba on a road trip through the rural back roads of central North Island.
