True love arises in letting go.
Shy teenager, Carol Wyatt, has dreamt of romance ever since her late father read to her as a child. After her beloved big sister announces an unexpected pregnancy, Carol stands in the gap to ease conflict with their depressive mother.
Legends surround the Nailbourne: an occasional winter torrent rising throughout Kent's picturesque Elham Valley. Stories of ill omens and tragedy come to life with devastating effects on the Wyatt household. Refusing to lose her challenged baby nephew to the care system, Carol puts a promising future on indefinite hold while her friends and dream lover drift away into exciting careers.
Only when the waters rise again during later life, does an unexpected bereavement see Carol's forlorn hopes of connecting with her childhood sweetheart rekindled.
Can unconfessed and unrequited love blossom, given a second chance?
Despite feeling left behind, is it possible life has been happening 'for' rather than 'to' Carol all along?
