THE TOUCH OF A HAND, A ROLL OF THE DICE
Xie Lian has confirmed that the bewitching youth San Lang is actually Hua Cheng, one of the Four Calamities and a supreme ghost despised by all heavenly officials. Still, he has trouble matching the terror of his companion’s reputation with the charming, clever, and protective young man he’s come to know.
When a distress signal leads Xie Lian into Ghost City, a bustling metropolis containing all the horrors and delights of the dead, he sees Hua Cheng in his element—and his true form—for the first time. But despite their chemistry and care for one another, there are missions to fulfill and secrets to uncover, and Xie Lian’s centuries of troubled history are never far behind.

SOMETHING TO FIGHT FOR, SOMEONE TO LIVE FOR
Gods should never meddle in the affairs of mortals, but Xie Lian is not one to follow the rules when lives are at risk.

Yet this golden child gets a harsh dose of reality when he discovers just how little one individual-even a god-can do to save a crumbling nation. As the people reject and betray him, one young soldier stands by Xie Lian-a boy with a face wrapped in bandages and a fierce loyalty in his heart. In this chaotic past, can an unshakable bond grow from the ashes of unimaginable destruction?
