Synopsis:

Return to Eden (1983)
Wealthy but plain heiress Stephanie Harper marries handsome tennis player Greg Marsden, and thinks she has found true love. That is, until her husband makes a play for her best friend and plots to get rid of Stephanie so he can take her money by pushing her off a boat and into the waiting jaws of a crocodile. However, she survives the attack and, although horribly disfigured, spends months undergoing surgery to have her face repaired by a brilliant plastic surgeon. However, the now beautiful Stephanie no longer looks like the woman she once was. She returns to the city under the name Tara Welles to seek vengeance on her husband, who has told everyone she was taken by a crocodile, and is now waiting to inherit all of her money. Now, she can have revenge...

On their fateful honeymoon cold-hearted Greg pushes Stephanie into a crocodile-infested swamp and leaves her to die in a bloody torrent. But Stephanie's will to survive is formidable - discovered and aided by hermit Dave Welles (Bill Kerr), given a new lease on life by brilliant cosmetic surgeon Dan Marshall (James Smillie) - Stephanie claws back her existence to establish an entirely new identity, supermodel Tara Welles. But within her heart pounds the desire for revenge and with Greg and Jilly firmly set in her sights it is time for her to return to Eden.
