COMING SOON TO NETFLIX: When a body is found floating in Nantucket harbor on the morning of what was to be the #weddingoftheyear, no one is safe from suspicion. It’s Fourth of July weekend, and the island that has long been an exclusive playground for the uber wealthy is swarming with outsiders: tourists, journalists, and wedding guests from all over the globe. As recent Brooklyn transplant and local police chief Ed Kapenash and State Detective Nikki Henry, who both stick out here like sore thumbs, dig into the case, they’ll struggle to lift the protective veil the rich islanders’ wealth affords them. But when they do, they’ll find a web of secrets and scandal that extends beyond their initial expectations. From the bride’s sudden-onset stutter to the groom’s famous mystery writer mother, the truth about this family, and the young woman marrying into it, is stranger than fiction. The truth is, no couple is perfect.
