Eight-year-old Ona has lost just about everything: her home, her possessions, her mother, and almost her life. When she and her father move into her Baba’s apartment complex after these traumatic events, they’re hoping for a clean start. But a mysterious specter follows her, and Ona befriends the ghost she discovers haunting the boiler room.
When her new friendship starts allowing her to see other ghosts who haunt the residents of her building, she decides to use her ability to help her new neighbors free themselves from their specters. In doing so, however, Ona must eventually come face to face with a much darker foe—her own grief.
