It reimagines the Greek story of Hades and Persephone in a contemporary context in which gods and mortals live. Persephone, the Goddess of Spring, lives as a human journalist in New Athens to avoid her overprotective mother, Demeter. Her life takes a drastic turn following a fortuitous encounter with Hades, the God of the Dead, at his nightclub Nevernight. Hades, infamous for making impossible bets, strikes a bargain with Persephone: she must produce life in the Underworld or forfeit her freedom forever.
