About the Show
When billionaire Claire Zachanassian returns to her impoverished hometown—once a place of deep betrayal—she finds the same townspeople who cruelly wronged her, now desperate for the promise of salvation that she brings.
But Claire’s arrival comes with a chilling ultimatum: the town must confront its dark past, and the price of redemption may be far greater than anyone is willing to pay.
