Synopsis by Dan Pavlides

Laura (Willow Grylls) and her brother Will (Ben Robb) are taken by their father Andrew (Stuart Wilson) to a Gothic hotel on the coast of Cornwall for a Christmas holiday. Andrew wants his children to meet Jane (Karen Young), the American woman he hopes to wed. Laura and Will adopt guerilla warfare tactics against Jane and produce videotaped evidence that she does not really love their father. When the siblings are not battling Jane, Laura listens to Eddie Cochran records while Will patrols the hotel for ghosts. The high, rocky cliffs of Cornwall and the Newquay hotel provide an effective Gothic setting for this gripping family drama.
