THE GODS LOVE TO TOY WITH MORTALS. AND EVERY CENTURY, WE LET THEM.
I’ve never been lucky when it comes to the gods—especially Zeus.
As a cursed office clerk for the Order of Thieves, my strategy is simple: keep my head down and avoid the attention of Olympus' rulers. It’s not easy, living in Zeus’ patron city of San Francisco, but I’ve managed to scrape by. That is, until I cross paths with the last god I’d ever want to meet.
Hades.
For the first time, the enigmatic King of the Underworld is participating in the Crucible, a dangerous competition where gods appoint mortals to fight for the throne of Olympus. Somehow, Hades has chosen me—an unlucky nobody cursed by Zeus—as his champion.
Why me? And why does my heart betray me every time he claims I belong to him?
Hades’ intentions remain a mystery, cloaked in secrets as endless as the stars. I don’t know if I’m his pawn or something more, but one thing is clear: Hades is rewriting the rules, and he’ll stop at nothing to win—even if Death is the cost.
