All the horrors of Hell stand between Snorri ver Snagason and the salvation of his family, if the dead can truly be saved. And all that is important for Yalan Kendet is to return alive and with the key of Loki. Loki's creation can open any lock, any door, and it is also the key to Yalan's wealth in the world of the living. Yalan plans to return to what formed the basis of his idle, dissolute life: wine, women and gambling. But fate has its own plans, and they are much larger. The Oshim Wheel is spinning faster and faster, and if it is not stopped, it will split the world. When the end of everything is at stake and there is nowhere to run, even the last coward is forced to look for new solutions. Jalan and Snorri face many dangers, from hordes of corpses raised by the will of the Dead King to the many mirrors of the Blue Lady, but in the end, sooner or later, quickly or slowly, the Oshim Wheel always attracts to itself. And in the end, you can only win or die.
