Actress Jodi Ludlum returns home to Ireland to raise her young son in the leafy South Dublin village of Bakers Valley - even if coming home means leaving her husband and waking old ghosts.

Meanwhile Francine Hennessy, queen of the coffee mornings, was born and raised in Bakers Valley. She takes pride in juggling her children, her beautiful home and her high-powered career.

But behind closed doors, Francine’s life is crumbling around her. As Jodi struggles to keep her secrets to herself and Francine comes to terms with some life-changing news, the two become unlikely friends.

When they do, they quickly discover that there’s no such thing as the perfect wife or the perfect life.
