In a world ruled by cruel gods, Aurora has only one thing on her mind: to help her brother. He is in a coma after an accident and only the heavenly light of the gods, the Divine Light, keeps him alive. However, collecting this light is punishable by death. Showing yourself in public during the month of “vocation” is just as dangerous: once a year, the gods choose new servants from among the people. These so-called Valets become personal servants to the Gods and are taken into the Divine District, never to return again. When Aurora is chosen as a Valet by Colden, son of the supreme god, she thinks her life is over. But Colden is different from anything Aurora could have imagined. On the outside, he behaves like the other gods, but in truth he does everything to protect Aurora. But can she really rust him? Death is for her constantly only one wrong step away, so this decision will not only change the fate of the world … but also Aurora’s heart.
