    Cornwall, summer of 1986.

    The Davenports, with their fast cars and glamorous clothes, living the dream in a breathtaking house overlooking the sea.

    If only… thinks sixteen-year-old Tamsyn, her binoculars trained on the perfect family in their perfect home.

    If only her life was as perfect as theirs.
