Fifteen years later, Kieran and his young family return home and are confronted by the past when another young woman is killed. Desperate for answers, the Evelyn Bay community are forced to uncover the mysteries that continue to haunt them.

Produced by: The award-winning team at Tony Ayres Productions (Fires, Clickbait, Stateless), which is backed by Matchbox Pictures and Universal International Studios, a division of Universal Studio Group.

From driving fines and daddy issues to internet scams and a lot of therapy, Theo and his best friend Johnny get up to their usual antics as they come to terms with what's most important: family.

APPLE CIDER VINEGAR *New clip*
