April Jones is three days from turning sixteen and she is absolutely terrified for what's ahead of her. It is year 3000 and Earth is controlled by Joseph Goldmen. He split Earth into six different countries, Trident, Medrish, Wasteland, Gromo, Goldmen, and Duel. Until you turn sixteen you live on Gromo with other children sixteen and under. Once you turn sixteen you are sent to spend a year on Duel, a land full of monsters, witches, dragons, and dangerous creatures. At the end of every week when you are in Duel the judges score you on how well you survived. The more points you get the better. At the end of the year (the day you turn seventeen) the people with the top twenty scores get to live the rest of their life on Trident a land full of gold, riches, everything you could want. The bottom 20 scores are forced to live the rest of their life on Wasteland a awful land full of darkness and sadness. The middle scores get to live their life's on Medrish an okay land. The medium land. Not amazing but not horrible. Your year on Duel will decide your entire life. April must do her best or she will live her entire life is darkness and sadness forever.

April Frausini can see ghosts. When she was younger, her parents had treated her like a child with a broken brain. They took April to doctors. The doctors sent her to specialists. The specialists put her on drugs. And when the drugs failed to stop the visions, the specialists zapped her brain. After that, April told them that the ghosts had gone. She lied. Now she’s in college and trying to forge a future for herself, but a chance encounter with a dark spirit in a bar puts a bit of a hold on things. A man named Jameson Talbot reaches out to her, explaining that there are worse things than ghosts to be afraid of. The spirit she saw the other night was no mere ghost, but the Devil himself in spectral form. If she chooses, Talbot promises to teach her to control her gift of sight, so that they may help others who have been tormented by these spirits, and potentially put a stop to whatever the Devil has planned. April must choose. Go back to a life where nobody understands her or her visions? Or follow Talbot, find a purpose, and walk down a dangerous path in search of the Devil himself?
