What is the plot of Emperor of Ocean Park TV series?
Set in the world of politics, Emperor of Ocean Park centres on Talcott Garland (Coleman), a distinguished law professor. The recent passing of his father, Judge Oliver Garland (Whitaker), sets off a chaotic chain of events that put his life and that of his family in danger.
The suspicious nature of his father’s death is questioned by Talcott’s sister, Mariah (Tiffany Mack), a former journalist and an established conspiracy theorist. She believes that their father, who resigned from the bench following the unearthing of a dark past that compromised his reputation, didn’t die of a heart attack.
Together with another sibling, Addison (Henry Simmons), the Judge’s three children reunite, later discovering the circumstances that led to their father’s death. In the process of digging up the past, they are bound to learn some hard truths they may not be prepared to face.
The series is created by Sherman Payne based on the novel of the same name written by Stephen L. Carter. Warner Bros. Television co-produced the show with John Wells Productions. Damian Marcano was announced as the series director.
