Eden Schmidt had almost always lived under the rule of her parents. Her father was vindictive and cruel, her mother gorgeous and vain. Even during the happiest moments of her life she felt as if something was missing.
Then, when Eden falls down the stairs after a particularly large blowout with her mother, everything changes. She is immersed in the world of the dead. Zemiothstai--or purgatory--is a place where demons, angels, and beasts run free.
Satan, using the power of a deadly gem called the Blood Stone, forces the gates of heaven shut. Under the calling of destiny, Eden must save the afterlife from the Devil's hands--or else.
As deafness, illness, and demonic forces close in around him, Ludwig van Beethoven must summon his faith and genius to complete the Missa Solemnis—a sacred masterpiece he believes could bring divine light into a darkening world.
