Plot
Set in 1963, in the swirl of glamor and intrigue that turned President John F. Kennedy's Washington into Camelot, a young teenager, Adam Stafford (Cameron Bright) has an inside view of JFK’s torrid affair with his neighbor Catherine (Gretchen Mol) and secret CIA assassination plans.
The Catherine Caswell character—and events not involving the wholly fictional Adam Stafford—are based on Mary Pinchot Meyer.[3]
