It started as a gorgeous Spring day in the Golden Branch Estates, a newly built housing development in a suburb of DC, in 1958. Everyone is new to the neighborhood, trying to settle into their lovely new homes. The homemakers have just finished seeing off their husbands to work and their kids off to private school. Some other gals are meeting at Nadine’s for tea and gossip this week, like every week since move-in day. It’s just a little escape for the housewives from the day-to-day. The player characters are housewives sipping tea, nibbling on sweets, and leaving their troubles behind. That is until one of the gal’s faces goes pale, and their worst nightmare comes true.
