After a disgraceful death, he lands a job escorting souls to the Hereafter, but his training is outsourced to a sullen grim reaper who wants nothing to do with him—and a group of demons who are too interested. With only weeks to prove himself or he’ll be banished to Limbo forever, Axel doesn’t have time to worry about romance.

For though his heart no longer beats, he finds it pulled in three different directions: the moon-drenched shores of Purgatory, where his mentor would rather make trouble than love… the dangerous yet steamy halls of Perdition, where the demons dwell… and to the very streets of Earth, where the alluring man who killed him still walks free.
