Exes Ward Dunbar and Camille Buhay thought they would never see each other again.

But years later, they unexpectedly reconnect in London, where they are interviewing for similar jobs. The spark they feel when they meet again - the attraction comes back like muscle memory, and they are reminded of what they had lost. When Ward and Camille discover they both got the job working opposing shifts, they vow to give their relationship another try. Ward starts the day shift and finds the immortal clientele unusual and dazzling. When he clocks out at the end of the day, he finds the door locked and himself trapped in the building. After a horrific first night shift contending with restless spirits and ghosts, Camille is also unable to escape.
