On a long car journey to Norfolk, Little Jo's repetitive chant, 'We're going to the wide, flat land, the wide, flat land, the wide, flat land,' resonates through the car, much to her older brother's annoyance. Hailing from Surrey, the siblings have always been enchanted by the charm of East Anglia's countryside, their anticipation heightened by the nostalgic tales of their mother's own childhood holidays on the north-east coast. Upon arrival at their quaint holiday cottage, a chance encounter with a neighbour sets them on a path that will change their lives forever. The Pritchards are soon faced with the unsettling shadows of their mother's past. Through this unexpected journey, they learn the essence of overcoming, the grace of empathy, and the power of loving support in encouraging others. Amidst the expansive tranquillity of the wide, flat land, they discover a healing peace, a calming beauty, a secure haven, and a renewed hope for the future of their extended family.
