“We’ve always lived this way. That’s what it means to be a Putnam.” — Sonya Dorman In a sleepy New England town, the Putnams live alone atop the hill—unchanged, untouched, and uninterested in the world outside their gates. But beneath the surface of this respectable American lineage lies a haunting question: what happens when tradition becomes a trap? The Putnam Tradition is a quietly unsettling tale of generational legacy, psychological control, and the dark undercurrents of nostalgia. With chilling subtlety, Sonya Dorman unravels the facade of an all-American family whose secrets threaten to destroy everything they were raised to protect. Step into a world where heritage becomes horror, and the myth of the "ideal family" is slowly, irrevocably unmade.
