Sam spends the first day of his holiday with his family on the Dutch island of Terschelling and his older brother breaks his leg. Bad for him, but good for Sam. Why? Because it leads to Sam meeting the headstrong Tess, who has an ingenious plan to finally meet her father, who doesn't yet know he has a daughter. Tess has only one week for her plan, during which she urgently needs Sam's help. But he is busy with himself and other things. But through their upcoming adventure, they both discover how much family and friendship really mean.
