Alan Lashari is going to die, and soon. His fate is sealed by the contract inscribed on his skin: in exchange for the safe return of his missing sister Sarah, he will give up his life and soul. But working with Zacharias, the demon assigned to Alan's request, isn't the living hell that Alan was expecting. Despite himself, Alan finds that he enjoys the demon's company, maybe more than he should. And that's hell. But Alan's unwelcome crush becomes the least of his concerns when he and Zacharias encounter an immortal known as the Advocate, an expert in supernatural law who has a reputation for finding loopholes in demon contracts. Alan is given the chance to rethink the choice he made months ago, and with his claim to Alan's soul threatened, Zacharias may start to reveal his true colors...
