After a white mob murders her father, twelve-year-old Ophelia Harrison is awakened by his ghost, who tells her to wake her mother and retreat to the woods. They comply, and escape before their home is burned to the ground by the same men.

There, Ophelia continues to see ghosts and learns she has a gift with helping them move on.
