Cat Winthorpe has it all - a Georgian mansion in exclusive Atherton, a tech mogul husband worth billions, and social status that makes her the envy of Silicon Valley. Behind her Hermes scarves and practiced smile lies a woman who clawed her way up from middle-class obscurity, wielding social influence like a weapon. When attractive newcomers Matthew and Neena Ryder purchase the dilapidated property next door, Cat's territorial instincts surge to high alert. Especially when William hires Neena as Winthorpe Tech's new "director of motivation" - a position Cat immediately recognizes as both vague and threatening. Watching Neena charm a group of venture capitalists, Cat reflects: "Some men are owned, some are borrowed, and some are taken. And I would never let anyone take William from me." What no one realizes is that behind Cat's perfect facade lies a woman with secrets - including clandestine visits to the abandoned Baker house next door, where she's discovered hidden cocaine, vintage jewelry, and personal documents from the previous owners who vanished under mysterious circumstances.
