In Queens' Row, as Eisenhower struggles to keep a third world war at bay, a small town wrestles with changing expectations of motherhood, gender norms, and the bonds of love, family, and friendship. Queens' Row takes us back to June of 1960 at Gettysburg Country Club, where Professor Grace Gilmartin and her friends reign supreme over the latest gossip-whether it be about President Eisenhower's latest meeting with Nikita Khrushchev or the lifeguard's latest crush. The summer is shaping up to be like any other until "Ike" announces that he and his family will be moving to their sleepy little Pennsylvania town–whose only claim to fame began and ended with the Civil War–once his second term is up. Gettysburg's glamourous residents up the social ante, and who makes the cut to get into the famous family's inner circle quickly becomes the talk of the town. Against the backdrop of manicured golf courses, political intrigue, and powerful secrets, Grace and her friends are invited to dinner at the White House, where a die is cast that will turn their world upside down.
