Corlis McCullogh is a thirty-four year old news reporter who has just arrived in New Orleans although she does have ancestors from the area.

When she covers the wedding of the two oldest families in the city, the Duvallons and the Eberts, she sees a ghostly bride and groom at the altar before the ceremony. This is the first of strange "visits" to the past.

The wedding ends up being called to a halt by the bride after she finds the groom and maid of honour in the cloakroom together. Corlis films the altar confrontation and after it is aired, she is fired.

The bride's brother is Kingsbury Duvallon who is a Professor of Architectural history - and was Corlis' nemesis at UCLA. But King feels guilty that she was fired and gives her information on another job. Corlis finds herself attracted to King despite their history together.
