The Spirit Line:

Some voices refuse to stay silent. Some secrets refuse to stay buried.

Thirteen-year-old Jayesh Patel knows death better than most kids. Growing up above his family's funeral parlor, he's used to the whispers of mourners, but not the whispers of the dead.

When Jayesh accidentally takes home a deceased man's phone, he answers a call that changes everything. The voice on the line belongs to Rumesh, a father who died saving his daughter's toy, and now his grieving child blames herself. He needs Jayesh to prove his death wasn't her fault.

Soon, more calls come.

• Gayatri, a woman murdered by her stalker, begs Jayesh to expose her killer before he strikes again.
• Mohini, a widow poisoned for her fortune, pleads for help rescuing her kidnapped son.
• Nilesh, a boy wrongly accused of pushing his brother to his death, cries out for the truth.

But as Jayesh unravels their stories, he draws the attention of a vengeful spirit who will stop at nothing to silence him. Now, Jayesh must confront a chilling question: Can he help the dead without joining them?
