Three generations of the Adler family struggle with romance, heartache, and the burden of family secrets over the course of a single summer that starts with a startling catastrophe.
Each year, Esther and Joseph Adler move into the little flat above their bakery and rent out their home to tourists fleeing to "America's Playground." They reared their two children, Florence and Fannie, at this apartment. Now, Fannie is pregnant again after losing a baby recently, and she will be bedridden for the duration of her pregnancy. Florence has returned from college, eager to train to swim the English Channel during the summer. The apartment is overflowing when Joseph demands they take in a mystery young woman he recently assisted in emigrating from Nazi Germany.
After tragedy strikes, Esther makes the shocking decision to keep the truth a secret—at least until Fannie's baby is born. This decision draws the family into a complex web of deceit and secrecy, exposing long-buried tensions and highlighting how easily betrayal can follow tragedy in the act of protecting those we love.
