After her husband is arrested and his affair with her sister is revealed, attorney Laura Gibson relocates to the coastal village of Pearl Bay.

Laura struggles in her first days as Pearl Bay's new magistrate, finding herself ill-equipped to deal with the idiosyncrasies of the locals.

Meredith's niece Carmen arrives and announces she's pregnant and also facing criminal charges related to her work as a restaurant critic.

Laura is puzzled by the town's attempts to influence her judgment concerning a widely admired local. Jack arrives to celebrate Rupert's birthday.

Laura's sister Trudi visits in an effort to heal the rift caused by her affair with Jack, but she soon charms every man in town, including Dan.

Diver Dan gives Laura tips on being accepted in Pearl Bay, but Laura decides that it's best if she remains her own woman, at least in the courtroom.

With the kids away at camp, Laura's thoughts turn to a quiet dinner with Diver Dan, until Dan's estranged wife Dorothy suddenly turns up in Pearl Bay.

Feeling like she's increasingly surrounded by couples, Laura works up the courage to invite Dan as her date to the annual magistrate's dinner-dance.

Pearl Bay is devastated by the death of a teenager. Rupert struggles with the loss, and with a project that has him distressed.

Laura is introduced to Brabey Point, a magical local "parking spot" where legend has it that strange things happen, particularly involving romance.
