Peggy arrives at her uncle's ancestral home expecting a quiet new chapter in her life. The old family house holds more than dusty furniture and faded portraits. Soon after settling in, she encounters the spirits of her own ancestors who still inhabit the rooms and corridors. These ghostly relatives from generations past have unfinished business that draws Peggy into their world. As she learns about their stories and struggles, Peggy must navigate between her present life and the pull of family history that refuses to stay buried. The boundaries between past and present blur as Peggy discovers that some family connections transcend death itself. Her new home becomes a place where generations meet and old secrets demand attention.
