Volunteer In Shaker Heights, a placid, progressive suburb of
Cleveland, everything is planned - from the layout of the winding
roads, to the colours of the houses, to the successful lives its
residents will go on to lead. And no one embodies this spirit more
than Elena Richardson, whose guiding principle is playing by the
rules.Enter Mia Warren - an enigmatic artist and single mother -
who arrives in this idyllic bubble with her teenaged daughter
Pearl, and rents a house from the Richardsons. Soon Mia and Pearl
become more than tenants: all four Richardson children are drawn to
the mother-daughter pair. But Mia carries with her a mysterious
past and a disregard for the status quo that threatens to upend
this carefully ordered community.When old family friends of the
Richardsons attempt to adopt a Chinese-American baby, a custody
battle erupts that dramatically divides the town - and puts Mia and
Elena on opposing sides. Suspicious of Mia and her motives, Elena
is determined to uncover the secrets in Mia’s past. But her
obsession will come at unexpected and devastating costs.
