Despite its outward appearance of paradise with a renowned chef-run restaurant and tranquil wellness center, the Hotel Nantucket is plagued by internal turmoil. Ghosts of its past, including the tragic death of chambermaid Grace Hadley in 1922, linger within its walls, while the current staff and guests are harboring their own secrets.
