Gray Ledges

Inspired by true events about a coastal Maine village in the 1930s, Gray Ledges explores the lives of two women who operate competing hotels in an idyllic summer resort. Amidst the strife of the Great Depression, economic instability, and political upheaval, nothing is as it seems in the quaint seaside village of Gray Ledges, where tensions simmer between innkeepers and their guests, visitors and residents, shopkeepers and their families--all of whom have less than they pretend . . . and much more to hide. Hailed by documentary filmmaker Ric Burns as "a new American Downton Abbey,"Gray Ledges is full of drama, intrigue, humor, and a generous portion of Down East charm.
