Seventeen year old Pierce Oliviera knew that by accepting the undying love of John Hayden, she'd be forced to live in the Underworld forever. But now her happiness and safety in the realm is threatened, because the Furies have discovered that John has broken one of their strictest rules: he revived a human soul. If the balance of life and death isn't restored, the Underworld and Pierce's home on earth will be wiped away. Pierce is willing to volunteer her own life, but John won't hear of it. She's already cheated death once - can she do it again?
