Plot
The body of a
teenager named Jamie Marks, a boy nobody really knew or interacted with
except occasionally to bully, is found by the river. His ghost is then
seen by two high school students: Gracie Highsmith, who discovered the
body, and Adam McCormick. As time progresses they begin to understand
why he is coming to them specifically. In life, Jamie was in love with
Adam,
but thought the love unrequited. Over time, Adam admits that he had
noticed Jamie in life but had never pursued friendship on any level. In
death, Jamie finds the courage to court Adam. Adam and Jamie begin a
loving but platonic relationship, which is complicated by their outside
relationships in the spirit and material worlds.
