Nico di Angelo, son of Hades, is in his last year of his school. Sixth form won't exactly be fun, but he's determined to stick it out. He does it by ignoring everyone except Amanda, his best friend and a daughter of Thanatos, but that's not going too well.
Kane Matthews, the prep who's determined to ruin Nico's life, is asking for a demonstration of Nico's fighting skills, but Nico can't break any bones if he doesn't want to get suspended. Monsters are more attracted to him than ever, and there's a new girl Chiara who's making his life difficult.
After being rejected by Will Solace last summer, Nico's heart is broken and he's less trusting than ever. Will the Son of Hades be able to mend his broken heart? Or is Nico's spirit broken for good this time?
