“Daughters, by the time you read this, I’ll be long gone on the train to Atlantic City…” The great financial crash of 1929 created unprecedented pandemonium; men abandoned their families, emotional breakdowns put a strain on sanitarium beds and suicides increased. Without their parents and with scant resources, four beautiful teenage sisters rode out the tumultuous 1930s in the small southern town of Apple Springs. Stella – fierce, protective and opinionated, assumed the role of caretaker. Dixie - contemplative, analytical and strategic, became the family’s problem solver. Pearlene – hopeful, impulsive and zany, created desperately needed laughter. And Tallulah, the youngest, innocent and vulnerable until a wealthy benefactor silently torments her with a pernicious secret that greatly aids her sisters. The town’s clandestine society of jealous gossipmongers is determined to root out all forms of debauchery in their beloved town. They make the gorgeous Fanning sisters their #1 target. However, throughout the course of their self-appointed investigation, they are stunned to discover scandalous promiscuity in their own church. But the heinous controversy that has yet to be uncovered has the power to shatter and obliterate the lives of many unsuspecting townspeople.
