Aderyn, a lost goddess with no memory of her past, wakes in the caring hands of Hades' daughter, Melinoe. She trains as her personal soldier for a selfish and cruel war of Hades' creation. 

Melinoe sets Aderyn on a mission to make Death fall in love with her to distract him from his personal vendetta, to kill Hades himself. 

When things go awry and Aderyn begins to fall for Death, her memories steadily resurface and her lust for blood grows as she discoverers who she was before her memory was wiped. 

Aderyn is stuck between Death and ghosts of the past and the Goddess of those ghosts, Melinoe. She must decide to keep herself as shy and timid or lose herself to the violence she was born from.

Who can think about homework or consequences when all of the gods are dying? With the help-or the hindrance-of the Fates, Autumn must train with Harpies, Furies, and other creatures formerly of myth to win an impending war for Hector, restore the ambrosia to Olympus, and be home in time for graduation.
