Dolores O'Brien and George William Sinclair are siblings bound by an unbreakable curse of immortality, yet separated by a chasm wider than the centuries they've endured. Dolores, a fierce voice for the downtrodden, embodies the spirit of revolution, while George, a ruthless Duke and warmongerer, upholds the rigid order of the upper class. Their past is stained with unspeakable betrayals that fuel a present of seething hatred and constant conflict.
As the Cornish woman fights for justice in the grimy underbelly of society, George navigates the treacherous halls of power, their paths colliding in a city rife with social disparity and simmering rebellion.
Consumed by rage and resentment, she finds herself locked in a bitter struggle not only with her brother, George, but also her past traumas which have numbed her emotionally and morally overtime. Dolores must confront the demons of her past and the treachery of her kin as she fights to forge a new destiny, one where honor and courage prevail.

"You had a head injury and passed out. I cleaned you up and put you in here to rest." His voice is now calm, much different to what I heard from the other room. "You said you cleaned me up. Did you also change my clothes?" I recall his words and am almost too shocked to ask about his invasion of my privacy. A devilish smile crosses his lips as he coyly looks at his feet. He is enjoying my embarrassment. "You're clothes had blood on them and I wasn't about to put you in a clean bed with dirty clothes on.
