Tzeyi Koay
All Zhenya has ever wanted is to escape her tiny village with her best friend Shuhua, but she must care for her grandmother, whose madness haunts their crumbling family bookstore.
It is only when her grandmother dies that Zhenya discovers it was never madness, but a curse. One that has passed on to Zhenya, her only remaining descendant. The curse screams to be fed, and Zhenya is powerless to stop it when it forces her to kill Shuhua with her bare hands.
As Zhenya grapples with Shuhua’s death, she’s confronted by two immortals: Kaijun, the broody judge of hell, and Yaori, the flirtatious goddess of death. Together, they drag Zhenya to Diyu – hell itself – in order to free Shuhua’s soul. There, Zhenya must undertake trials that will test her in unimaginable ways.
To complicate things further, Zhenya finds herself torn between Kaijun and Yaori, grappling with feelings she doesn’t fully understand. But she can’t afford to be distracted, not when the only way to break the curse is to destroy it herself.
