What happens when a demon tricks someone into selling their soul? Who is responsible to deal with the aftermath, to balance and restore the world's order after a necromancer's soul devouring pet grows beyond all imagination? Given a second chance at life, Daniel Willow finds himself with a rather distressing and hazardous job. Now tasked with dealing with those compromising Death's domain, he must learn how to confront not only stronger, but also much older opponents. A seemingly impossible assignment for someone who spent the last years of his old life on a bed and no fighting experience.
