Downton Abbey: Crises in Canada

In early spring 1928, Emily Atkinson is contacted by her distant male cousin, the one who inherited the Atkinson estate when her parents passed on. Now with her brother alive and well, the situation of inheritance has become more complicated and the cousin requests her to come home and settle everything. He proposes that Emily bring her entire adopted family over to Canada, staff included, for a vacation and to meet what remains of the Atkinson clan and spend time at the old homestead.

While many are reluctant to take the trip, both Emily and Marius are pleased to be going home. An unexpected arrival of an acquaintance complicates their trip but the young girl even invites some old friends to visit Canada.

However, everything seems too good to be true. The seemingly idyllic time comes to a sudden end one night as the group struggles to survive and unravel the secrets of their once happy vacation.
