Celeste Adams is a 60-year-old widow who thought that she and her late husband would spend their golden years operating The Gran Vista Hotel. Unfortunately, Celeste's husband is killed in a tragic accident, and she must carry on alone, in debt, and in danger of losing the hotel. Public relations expert, Bill Matthews convinces her to advertise the hotel as a wedding venue, but the first event she hosts ends with a dead groom. Though his death is first believed to be natural causes, an autopsy proves otherwise. Fingers point to the bride, Emma Carlyle, who is now a second-time widow. However, as the Carlyle family skeletons come tumbling out of the closet, the clues Celeste uncovers lead to a surprising conclusion.

Arnold Penny gathers his family at The Gran Vista Hotel to inform them of an offer to purchase the popular tourist destination, Granny Belle's Apple Orchard. He intends to accept the bid and distribute the proceeds among them but chaos ensues. One family member returns after forty years of being presumed dead and doesn't find a warm welcome home. Another family member dies in a manner reminiscent of an old family curse. Was it a freak accident or was she murdered?
