In a world where thrushes sing and willow trees are golden in the spring, boredom should have been included among the seven deadly sins . -Elizabeth Goudge
Being attacked by an angel with a flaming sword and subsequently rescued by a woman wearing a fedora is hardly how you expected your night to go and yet here you are. After finding out you are the Contractor, a human with the ability to contract all seven sins you are tasked with bringing about the end of the world.
Easy enough right? Wrong. Along the way you find out there is more to this strange world than meets the eye. From killer fae and angry angels you will certainly have your work cut out for you. Hell, maybe you’ll even be able to figure out your strange dreams and why these people seem so familiar…
