With dreams of turning it into their dream home, they enlist the help of their close friends, John and Isabel. But as the renovations begin, the foursome are drawn into the intriguing history of the cottage’s past occupants. As the layers of the home’s legacy are peeled back, secrets emerge, intertwining their present with a past they could never have imagined.
