The peaceful village of Willowbrook seems to be the ideal place for a new lease of life - at least according to Nell's husband, Barney. With an empty nest and coming towards retirement, he's persuaded her to try country living. Their cottage even has an annexe that's perfect for Barney's widowed father, Frank.
Nell is less sure about this fresh start... and it's not long before cracks in her thirty-year marriage begin to appear. Instead of spending more time together, she and Barney seem to be drifting apart. Frank, too, is unsettled.
A weekly community group exploring the secret of happiness provides a way for Nell and her father-in-law to navigate their new surroundings. Nell finds some friends, and Frank is quickly taken in hand by the neighbourhood matriarchs - the self-styled 'Saga Louts'!
But will questioning what makes her happy push Nell even further away from Barney, especially when she discovers the secrets her husband has been keeping? Or can opening up to others help old wounds heal and bring them back together once more? What really is the secret to happiness?
