It’s peak holiday season in the popular seaside town of Osprey Point when an enigmatic stranger, Isabelle (Palmer) rents a family home in a quiet cul-de-sac.
As Isabelle charms her way into her neighbours’ homes and lives, she quickly discovers that everyone at Pleasant Court has something to hide.
How far will her obsessive drive to solve a mystery push her to expose the truth?
Based on New York Times bestselling Australian author Sally Hepworth’s novel of the same name, this entertaining mystery blends drama and humour while exploring family dynamics through the unique lens of screenwriter Sarah Scheller and director Emma Freeman.
