Now that both parents have passed, Nicole wants to fulfill her mother’s last will to sell the hotel and refund the girl’s relatives, so she returns to her home town to audit the decaying structure. When the weather takes a turn for the worst, she finds herself stuck inside the large mountain lodge, and finds support in Irving, a young FEMA agent using one of the first cellular telephones ever built. With his help, Nicole starts to investigate a story which hides a mystery far deeper than what people in the valley thought, a story of love and death, where melancholy and nostalgia melt into a thrilling ghost tale.
