A cheerful, playful mystery-comedy about small-town women banding together to uncover the truth, driven by humor, camaraderie, and the subversion of conservative propriety.

When the denizens of Littlehampton – including conservative Edith – begin receiving letters full of hilarious profanities, rowdy Irish migrant Rose is charged with the crime. Suspecting something amiss, the town's women band together to investigate.
