Wrong Side of the Picket Fence

<p><strong>Like 1984 but set in a 1994 suburb where the HOA is the Party.</strong></p><p></p><p>Astor Place is pristine exclusive-and absolutely controlled. Presiding over it all is Ted Astor: third-generation HOA president corporate lawyer and self-appointed guardian of suburban order. His days revolve around citations appearances and a legacy built on clockwork precision.</p><p></p><p>But when Jim Paulinho-a blue-collar contractor from the other side of town-moves into the cul-de-sac Ted's manicured empire begins to unravel. Teenagers rebel. Marriages fray. The bylaws no longer hold. And even Ted's own family begins to slip from his grasp.</p><p></p><p>As the community fractures and chaos seeps in through the white picket cracks Ted doubles down desperate to restore order-even if it costs him his son's future and his own sanity.</p><p></p><p>A dark comedy of suburban authoritarianism brittle pride and the fall of a man who mistook control for salvation. Perfect for fans of <em>The Corrections</em> <em>Little Fires Everywhere</em> and <em>White Lotus</em>-level dysfunction.</p>
