Melinda must help the ghost of an African-American man who had been attacked and killed by a lowlife, racist white co-worker in the 1970s. The ghost, named Ely Fisher, is haunting the prosecutor (now a judge) who had enough evidence but still failed to file charges against the white co-worker. Melinda tries to help Ely find justice and help his son, Randall, to change his racist views before they are passed on to the next generation - his grandson, Jameel.
