The Platter community is an eccentric one - wealthy boat owners, river dwellers, nature lovers
and itinerant workers - but at its heart is the chaotic pairing of Pat and his sister Libby.
Their father founded the business and, when he died, Pat reluctantly took over. Libby has been
away from home for a long period but is now back to discover that Pat has taken on a Manager,
the fiercely efficient Martine. But Martine doesn't like boats or rivers. Pat didn't think to ask that
question at the interview. For Libby there is unfinished business to resolve at Platters' but Pat is
not keen to engage with these conversations. Then one day a strange young man called Ravi
drifts along the river and moors his boat on the Platter riverfront and the questions of why he
is there begin to surface ...
