Pebble Cove is the last word in elegant living, a development of four exclusive detached residences overlooking the spectacular views of Cork Harbour.

Designed by renowned architect, Charlie Moorhouse, the houses are built by Daniel Colton, who hands over the palatial show-house to his daughter.

Possessively infatuated with Charlie, Linda has great expectations for their personal and professional future. Striving to break into the male-dominated world of property development and eager for any alliance that will strengthen her social position, she has high hopes that her new neighbours will bring added status to her prestigious address.

Financiers Marcus and Deirdre Fleming are shocked to find that the secure cocoon of their luxury lifestyle is shattered by the premature birth of their son, Alex. Coming to terms with the terrifying prospect of physical and intellectual disability, they endeavour to cope with the challenges of the extraordinary journey on which they are forced to embark.

Shay Deegan takes his lavish lifestyle for granted, partying hard to the detriment of his career as a rising accountant. Life is glorious until Ken, his best friend and party animal extraordinaire, takes one chance too many. Shay struggles to finally come of age amid tragedy and hopelessness but will he survive the transition?

Fiesty neonatal nurse, Amy Harkin stretches her resources to the limit to invest in her dream home. Unexpectedly, both love and tragedy strike simultaneously, leaving Amy wondering if her idyllic future is already over.

The journey towards personal fulfilment is a perilous one, yet the residents of Pebble Cove face it with varying degrees of strength, determination, faith and sheer grit.

But does anyone know what really happens behind closed doors?
