When the rich but carefree Lysander Knox runs from his home and father, he angrily flees to the beautiful city of Venice.
Before long, he is forced to find work to support himself, and find a job working in a strange little cafe, "Name of the Queen", run by an eccentric girl that everyone calls Time. When he accidentally stumbles across something he didn't believe existed, he is shoved into a world of grinning monsters, soulless humans, and people without shadows.
But when everything he's came to love becomes endangered, Lysander is forced to take a stand against the creatures, and prevent the upcoming apocalypse.

A retelling of the Hades and Persephone myth, a story of fate, the struggle for power, and love found in the most unexpected places. ***** Persephone has been raised in Olympus all her life - her mother absent, her father a cruel king, with her siblings teaching her all they know. She has seen all of what the gods and goddesses do and she is sick of it. When she learns her safety is threatened by staying in Olympus, she flees to the Underworld. There she stays until she learns that her leaving has caused the world to wilt. But leaving behind her newfound friends and Lady of the Underworld is something she will not do willingly, no matter the consequences.
