      In the remote town of Vanishing Falls, nestled within the Tasmanian rainforest, lies the historic Calendar House, home to art collector Jack Lily, his wife Celia, and their four daughters. However, Celia has mysteriously vanished, leaving no trace behind. Joelle Smithton, perceived by some as simple-minded due to her traumatic past, possesses a unique perspective that allows her to notice details others overlook. She is aware of Jack's dubious connections to local unsavory characters and senses that he is hiding something. Joelle's own husband, Brian, a butcher, is also acting suspiciously. As the police struggle to locate Celia, Joelle begins to sift through town gossip and subtle clues, piecing together the truth. The secrets of Vanishing Falls, much like the water from the falls that disappears underground, are intertwined and ready to surface. Joelle must find the courage to uncover what truly happened to Celia, even if it means confronting her own hidden past.
