Blood and Book Clubs in the Suburbs
In 1990s Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, Patricia Campbell's life has become a monotonous routine of caring for her psychiatrist husband Carter, their children Korey and Blue, and her senile mother-in-law. Her one escape is her true crime book club, where she and four other housewives gather to discuss the darkest corners of humanity rather than the literary classics expected of "proper" Southern ladies. When James Harris moves to town following his aunt's death, his charm and business acumen quickly win over the community. But Patricia begins noticing disturbing patterns-children disappearing from Six Mile, the predominantly Black neighborhood where Harris is developing luxury homes. As evidence mounts that Harris might be something inhuman, Patricia discovers that the greatest horror isn't supernatural predators but being systematically silenced by those sworn to protect her.
