What to expect

New South Wales, 1972. Following the death of her beloved Aunt Hilda, widow Clare Barclay inherits Bellevue, an historic property in the Blue Mountains township of Numbulla, Australia. Giving up her teaching job to move there, Clare plans to restore the house to its original glory. She also hopes to track down a box of missing documents that may shed light on why her husband Jack secretly second-mortgaged their home. Clare makes friends with the locals, including a young boy named Joe. She soon hears of plans to redevelop Numbulla, and to exploit the land bordering the protected wilderness area. But as she joins the protest against the rezoning, it's clear someone doesn't want her there - and they'll do anything to stop her . . .
