Robin is een jonge tiener die na een comma wakker wordt en plots elk spook kan zien en spreken. Een geluidsachtige geest uit haar verleden dwingt haar een keuze te maken tussen het beschermen van haar nieuwe vrienden tegen duistere krachten en het najagen van een normaal leven. Naast supernatural elementen doorkruisen ook alledaagse middelbare schoolproblemen haar pad, van lastige klasgenoten tot intrigerende jongens, terwijl Robin haar identiteit en vriendschappen heruitvindt.
