But as Sarah takes her place as lady of Ash Park, George's mother, Elizabeth (Noni Hazlehurst), feels pushed out of the household that she ran for decades. George's son, James (David Berry), returns from abroad to start a business in Sydney, while his daughter, Anna (Abby Earl), lives in Hawaii with her sister-in-law (Arianwen Parkes-Lockwood), hiding a secret from the rest of the family. As the Bligh's journey back to each other, they face tragedies, betrayals and new beginnings that will challenge their relationships and change the courses of their lives.
