What is Grosse Pointe Garden Society About?
Grosse Pointe Garden Society follows Alice, Birdie, Brett, and Catherine, who are a part of a suburban garden club. What starts as a fun way to bond soon descends into chaos and scandal. After all, instead of planting flowers and trees, the group begins digging up the soil to bury bodies.
The group makes a pact to always have each other’s backs. But with four different personalities clashing against each other, how long will they be able to keep their secret? Also, as the bodies begin to rot and smell, the four will have to decide what lengths they are ready to go to save themselves.
