Attorney Frank Saunders was downsized during the 2008 recession. Frank attempts to sell the Long Island summer home inherited by his wife, Deanna, and her brother, Ben Walters, in order to fund his own business. Ben also wants to sell the property, but Deanna prizes her family history and traditions and adamantly refuses. The intense dispute fractures the marriage and the sibling relationship, but the family is forced to unite in order to confront a shocking and far more serious threat to the property and to the family legacy.
