Road Trip to Whanga

Three sisters. One road trip. Countless signs from the man they loved.

When Julia flies to New Zealand to settle her father’s affairs, she expects grief, paperwork, and a practical farewell, not a journey across the country marked by uncanny timing and mysterious little signs at every turn. 

Back in her home country, she’s pulled into a tangle of family tensions and a lawyer that’s far from trustworthy….and that’s before anything unusual even starts happening.

As she and her sister Caroline drive through their father’s hometown and revisit the places woven into their family’s history, strange coincidences begin to unfold - messages that appear suddenly, detours that lead exactly where they need to be, and a photograph that reveals its secret only when the moment is right.

Funny, heartfelt and mysterious, Road trip to Whanga is a true story about love, loss and the surprising ways a father can walk beside his daughters long after he’s gone.
