Rival demigods defy divine orders and survive a lethal school illusion together.
Sierra Blair arrives on campus under Zeus's command to eliminate Alex Thorne, heir to Hades, but a supernatural death game overtakes the grounds, trapping students amid monsters and fatal rules. Alex, long persecuted by bullies, reveals dormant shadow abilities to shield his peers at terrible personal cost. Witnessing his sacrifice, Sierra abandons her mandate and fights beside him, discovering their opposing powers of light and darkness can combine. As they confront each trial, ancient enmity between their divine bloodlines gives way to an unexpected bond that reshapes both their destinies.
