I was ten when I died for twenty minutes. When I came back, I could see the dead amongst the living.

 

I didn’t come back alone. A boy named Damien. He isn’t one of the dead; he is a demon.

 

I’m an anomaly. I don’t belong among the living. My existence threatens the delicate balance between the dead and the living.

 

It’s Damien’s job to rectify the mistaken and return me to underworld. There is a vindictive cruelty about him and for the last seven years he has haunted my every moment. I don’t know how much more I can take.

 

But one thing is clear: he hates me and he’ll do whatever is necessary to drag me back to the depths of hell.
