Powerful oligarchs and ruthless gangs rule in a city beyond corruption. One girl and one ring could change the fate of everyone.

It's New Year's Eve and hundreds of people are flocking to the city into the affluent areas all the way down into the sewers below. The party is on, and Mia's job is going to be popping. She works at Valkyrie House, a brothel that invites absolute debauchery, but also a place Mia calls home. In a city under the crooked leadership of the Five Families, Mia has managed to carve out a good life in the gloomy capital city of Julilie.

All is well until a client leaves behind a mysterious crown-shaped rose gold ring with strange markings engraved inside. Determined to return it and rid the brothel of the liability, Mia thinks she's doing the right thing, but soon finds herself the enemy of every gang in the city. Gangs that are controlled by the very oligarchs who rule the country.

Ancient magic collides with the modern day, as Mia discovers that she is the only one who can tip the fate of everyone in her city. Ruthless gangs will hunt her, the darkness will be on her heels. Will she be able to tell friends from foes in time to save herself and her home or will the forces tear her apart to get what they want?
