- Summary
- The Connor family is one of the few that is still left in their idyllic fishing village, Big Running; after the fish mysteriously disappear from the fishing village, Aidan and Martha Connor spend alternate months of the year working at an energy site up north to support their children, Cora and Finn. As the months go on, the emotional distance between the once blissful Aidan and Martha only widens. Meanwhile, eleven-year-old Finn Connor develops an obsession with solving the mystery of the missing fish. Aided by his reclusive music instructor, Finn thinks he may have discovered a way to find the fish, and in turn, save the only home he's ever known. While Finn schemes, his sister Cora spends her days decorating the abandoned houses in Big Running with global flair - the baker's home becomes Italy; the mailman's, Britain. But it's clear she's desperate for a bigger life beyond the shores of her small town. As the streets of Big Running continue to empty Cora takes matters - and her family's shared destinies - into her own hands
