Description

Set against the rolling bluff and ancient trees of Grandon Park, a stately stone house crowns a sweeping lawn that looks out over a river‑carved bay. The summer air is warm, the roses just beginning to unfurl, and the house’s turreted silhouette feels like a relic from another era. Inside, the family matriarch and her daughters linger in a sun‑lit library, their conversations a mix of nostalgia and restless anticipation.

All eyes turn to the road as a carriage finally rounds the drive, bearing Floyd Grandon after years of wandering. The sisters—Gertrude, Marcia, and the eager Laura—debate his possible return with a married companion, each fearing how his arrival might upend their fragile hopes. Their sharp exchanges hint at hidden rivalries and lingering resentments, promising a tangled web of love, duty, and family pride as the story unfolds.
