Synopsis

This drama is based on the 2022 novel of the same name by Sano Hiromi, winner of the Edogawa Rampo Prize and author of Dareka ga Kono Machi de, which was previously adapted into the WOWOW drama series.
 
The story depicts the “ultimate sisterhood” formed by wives suffering from domestic violence, who, at the end of despair, find a way to survive together.
 
The protagonist is Noriko, a housewife who has lost her sense of self after years of daily domestic abuse from her husband, to the point where she believes that the violence is her own fault.
After fleeing to a hospital, she encounters a mysterious figure. Guided by this person, she begins living in a shared house on Enoshima with other women who have suffered the same kind of abuse.
As Noriko slowly regains her true self and rediscovers a richer life, she eventually comes face-to-face with a secret rule that governs the house.
