THE STORY: A Boston family’s annual summer horseshoe tournament on Cape Cod goes awry when family secrets and hidden emotions intrude.

The tournament is also the first since the death of Adam’s brother Max, whose widow and son, Susan and Christian, come to visit from California. Josh’s ex-wife, Zoe, also stops by, and new details emerge about Max’s relationship with Susan. HORSESHOES examines a family coping with its past and present while seeking a path into the future.
