OverviewIn the Dirty Thirties, when work is hard to come by, Tilly McCormack is fortunate to secure a position at the prestigious Banff Springs Hotel, one of Canada's grand railway hotels and soon learns of the resident ghost. At first, Tilly dismisses the tale of the bride who slipped on the hotel's marble staircase and fell to her death. After a chilling encounter in a stairwell and later being inexplicably drawn into waltzing on her own in the ballroom, Tilly can no longer deny the rumors. More of a concern is when the guest whose wedding will soon occur at the hotel goes missing. Tilly sets out to find the bride-to-be with trail guide Ryan Blake. Ryan is happy to help, as he intends to make Tilly his bride. Will there be at least one happy ending between the ghost bride, the missing bride, and the possible bride-to-be?
