When the famously private heiress Margaret Ives extends an invitation to the eternally optimistic Alice Scott to visit the warm and inviting Little Crescent Island, Alice senses her moment has arrived: a significant opportunity to showcase her talent and finally impress her family with a noteworthy publication. However, there's a twist: Hayden Anderson, a Pulitzer Prize-winning writer known for his gloomy demeanor, has the same goal in mind. Margaret proposes a one-month trial to uncover the truths of one of the 20th century's most notorious families, after which she will decide who gets to narrate her story. The challenge lies in the fact that Margaret provides only intriguing snippets of information hindered by a stringent NDA, complicating any collaboration or connection between Alice and Hayden. Furthermore, there is an undeniable attraction that simmers whenever they are close, overshadowing their efforts. It becomes increasingly obvious that their narrative—much like the one Margaret is weaving—could unfold as a mystery, tragedy, or a love story, depending on whose narrative ultimately prevails.
