The year is 1929, and John Whitaker has just married a feisty American racecar driver named Larita. John is the eldest of the Whitakers--a prim English family--and when he returns home with Larita on his arm, his mother is none too pleased. John’s choice of a loud, brash American has raised everyone’s eyebrows, including his sisters, Hilda and Marion. The only person who seems to approve of Larita is Mr. Whitaker--John’s weary, put-upon father. Try as she might, Larita has a hard time impressing the icy, unforgiving Mrs. Whitaker, and indeed, the entire Whitaker clan proves to be a rather eccentric, unhappy bunch. John had promised Larita a short visit, but due to pressure from his mother, they stay longer than planned. Time drags on, and the friction between Mrs. Whitaker and Larita only gets worse. When Hilda digs up something scandalous from Larita’s past, tensions bubble to a boiling point, and Larita is forced to face some rather hard truths about herself and her new husband.
