Dominic Gallo dies in a gang crossfire but wakes up as Death's apprentice. Handsome and awkward, Dominic struggles with a reluctant mentor, sleep deprivation, and tasteless food in his surreal new existence working for the Life and Death (L&D) Corporation. He works alongside Life's apprentice, the beautiful but hostile, Violet and her mentor, the bubbly and vivacious Alice.
Together, Dominic and Violet pursue her psychotic killer and uncover dark forces within L&D, plotting to bring our world to its knees under a new empire. As the powers of Life and Death divide, Dominic falls for Violet and must make the ultimate choice to either fight on the side of Death or protect the forces of Life at all cost. As a comparison, think Ron Weasley meets Percy Jackson's girlfriend in the afterlife.
