Tally, a peaceful lakeside village on the shores of Lake Geneva: its beach, town hall, and stately homes... A project to build a luxury clinic on the beach means turmoil for the Tally residents, and three families find themselves plunged into a struggle that will change the nature of their relationships forever.

Juliette Chappuis fights tooth and nail to preserve the beach and its quaint refreshment stand with the help of her fisherman husband. Their childhood friend, the mayor of Tally, sees the project as a golden opportunity for the future development of his town. As for the Monnestiers, a powerful family that has owned a large part of the Riviera for three generations, their economic and political interests are tied to the fate of the clinic. Characters are torn between childhood friendships and economic interests, urban development and heritage protection. The heroine of the series chooses to act come hell or high water, even if it means rocking the boat of the village's peaceful balance. A family saga that captivates with its political and civic dimensions.
