The Sounds

Welcome to Pelorus, the sleepy Kiwi town where nothing, including the visiting Cabbotts, is what it seems. Secrets weave through hidden valleys and deep waters. And at the centre? Maggie Cabbott.

When Canadian Maggie Cabbott arrives in the idyllic Marlborough Sounds in New Zealand to be re-united with her husband Tom, their grand plans for a perfect future take a disastrous turn.

Cabbott family envoy Esther arrives, putting grieving Maggie under further pressure as the search for Tom continues. Meanwhile, out in the bush, his problems escalate.

Esther gets wind of the fishery faltering and Maggie goes on Zoe’s trail but the locals are dealt a further blow when human remains turn up at Matai Bay.

Maggie bonds further with Stuart in her quest to do right by Pelorus, but it’s Jack that Esther has her eyes on. Meanwhile Tom’s health spirals but he finds a friend in the bush.

Maggie gets more devastating news about the man she thought she knew so well while Jack makes a heart-breaking discovery in the bush and Esther makes a monumental connection.

Maggie revisits the plans she and Tom worked so hard to make to start their lives afresh in Pelorus, but in a shocking twist, she is forced to fight for her life.

As Esther closes in, Maggie needs to escape Pelorus but first has to honour her promise to Mitch. Worse, now Jack is on to her although he has a stunning confession of his own.

Maggie swears to make amends to the people of Pelorus and makes an unlikely deal with Pania. Knowing that Esther is so close to the truth, she tries to flee - with catastrophic results.
