Early Autumn

In the rigid, old-money world of the Pentlands, a family whose roots stretch back to the Massachusetts Bay Colony, an autumn in the 1920s brings an unwelcome flurry of 'outsiders.' From Sybil, the patriarch's granddaughter fresh from Parisian intellectualism, to Sabine, a prodigal niece returning after two decades with her daughter Thérèse, and O’Hare, an Irish Catholic politician challenging the town's staunch Protestant establishment—each arrival chips away at the family's carefully constructed façade. Olivia, Sybil’s mother, watches as the veneer of calm cracks, revealing long-buried secrets and a deep-seated rot that threatens to consume the family from within.
