Holly moved to Brighton to escape. But now she's here, sitting on a bench, listening to the sea sway... what is she supposed to do next? How is she supposed to fill the void Sam left when he died? She had thought she'd want to be on her own. Wrecked. Stranded. But after she meets Frank, the tide begins to shift. Frank, a retired magician who has experienced his own loss but manages to be there for everyone else. Gradually, as he introduces Holly to a circle of new friends, young and old, all with their own stories of love and grief to share, she begins to learn to live again.
