The Story: A Delightful Mix of Comedy and Mystery

Based on a true story, Wicked Little Letters transports viewers to Littlehampton, a picturesque English seaside town in the 1920s. The story follows the lives of two neighbors who couldn’t be more different: Edith Swan, a prim and proper local spinster, and Rose Gooding, a lively and outspoken Irish immigrant. Despite their differences, the two women coexist in relative peace until their tranquil town is shaken by a series of shocking and wicked letters filled with profanities.

These letters, addressed to various residents, spark outrage and suspicion, leading the town to point fingers at the most likely suspect: the irreverent Rose Gooding. Her outspoken nature and defiance of societal norms make her an easy target for blame. However, as the investigation into these “wicked little letters” unfolds, the town’s women begin to suspect that something more sinister is at play.

As the mystery deepens, Edith and Rose, along with other residents, must band together to uncover the true culprit behind the letters. What follows is a hilarious and heartwarming journey filled with unexpected alliances, laugh-out-loud moments, and a satisfying resolution that highlights the strength and solidarity of the town’s women.
