Sentenced to death for killing the vampire prince who transformed her, she is saved by Asar, the bastard prince of the House of Shadow. Asar forces Mische into a dangerous mission to the underworld to resurrect the god of death. However, Mische’s sun god commands her to betray Asar by killing the god of death. As they journey through treacherous paths, they face trials, beasts, and vengeful ghosts while their forbidden attraction grows. As Mische’s betrayal nears, she must choose between the redemption of the sun or embracing the darkness that threatens to consume them both.
