Persephone Flemming has died, and upon being judged by celestial beings, she's damned to Hell, but she finds out for herself that Hell isn't exactly what it's rumored to be. Hell is a modern metropolis, where anything you could possibly want is at your fingertips, where violence, sex, alcohol, partying, drugs, food, and everything else is in endless supply. There are no rules and no consequences for giving in to every dark desire. But is it too good to be true? Something is up with Hell's rulers, and when they all start to take interest in Persephone, she's not sure whether to drink up the attention or run as far away as possible. So when does the torture begin, or has it already started?

The Zodiacs signs are teenagers stuck in a battle for paradise against each other. The signs are separated into four houses: Fire, Earth, Air, and Water. Each house has a leader and each month they are sent to battle. Each month after the battle a sign is eliminated ( The weakest of the first eliminated house in the battle. ) Once one house is remaining the entire house is sent to "Paradise." However, this is a paradise they've never seen. The houses which do not win are forced to play again the next year. These people are now met with the new Air house.
