In an otherworldly, bureaucratic afterlife, Dheny is a "Debt Collector" for the Department of Karmic Reconciliation in a never-ending cycle of paying karmic debts to malevolent spirits. What initially seemed like a fairly straightforward task-helping spirits resolve their earthly regrets and move on-turns into a nightmare: the very debts he has been compelled to settle tie back into his own sins and past mistakes. As Dheny works his way through the assignments, helping these restless souls find closure, he realizes that those spirits are not just victims of circumstance but shadows of his own wrongdoings. From the guilt of abandoning a terminally ill partner, Sarah, to manipulating an innocent man's death for personal gain, Dheny faces the ghosts of his own past. But with each redemption, the line between his past and his role as a collector blurs.
