Buried memories of her past have taken her to a new life in Beckford, a small town in New South Wales, where she becomes the housekeeper for a family who live on Beckford Station. There she will watch over 14-year-old twins who have been so obnoxious to previous housekeepers that their father is desperate.----The homestead causes déjà vu for Arlene and it becomes her fantasy house.
