Descripción
In Shaker Heights, a placid and progressive suburb of Cleveland, everything is meticulously planned, from the winding roads and the colours of the houses to the successful lives its residents are expected to lead. No one embodies this spirit more than Elena Richardson, whose guiding principle is to play by the rules. Then enigmatic artist and single mother Mia Warren arrives with her teenage daughter Pearl and rents a house from the Richardsons. Mia and Pearl soon become more than tenants, drawing all four Richardson children into their lives. But Mia carries a mysterious past and a disregard for the rules that threatens to disrupt the carefully ordered community. When old family friends try to adopt a Chinese-American baby, a custody battle divides the town and places Mia and Elena on opposing sides. Suspicious of Mia and her motives, Elena is determined to uncover the secrets of her past, but her obsession comes at an unexpected and devastating cost.
