Angela is a strong-willed, single mother who sets out to reclaim her family's name in the aspirational world of Oak Bluffs on Martha's Vineyard.
In the historical stronghold where the affluent and powerful black elite play, Angela wants to make an impact with her new haircare line for black women.
It isn't long, however, before she discovers a dark secret about her mother's past that turns her world upside-down and changes the community forever.
