What would you do when instead of bringing back a dead boy, those friends succeeded in resurrecting something far worse than anyone could have possibly imagined? Seventeen-year-old Oliver Blackwell had only wanted to fit in. That was the reason he followed the commands of his friends that fateful night an ancient demon was resurrected.

The demon spares Ollie's life, but on one condition... Oliver must bring the demon a virgin's blood, or, sell his soul to the creature brought up from hell. The catch?

As the stakes escalate, Oliver grapples with the horrifying reality unfolding around him. Complicating matters further, the demon begins to exhibit human emotions, particularly towards Oliver's sister, blurring the lines between malevolence and unexpected affection.
