Only in name is Persephone the Goddess of Spring. The reality is that flowers have withered on her touch ever since she was a little child. She intends to live a modest life in New Athens under the guise of a mortal journalist.
The God of the Dead, Hades, has amassed a sizable gambling business in the land of the living, and it's said that his favourite wagers are impractical.
After a chance encounter with Hades, Persephone finds herself in a contract with the God of the Dead and the terms are impossible: Persephone must create life in the Underworld or lose her freedom forever.
But the wager does more than just highlight Persephone's shortcomings as a goddess. Her love for the God of the Dead increases as she fights to plant the seeds of her freedom, even though it is prohibited.
