Desdemona's life changed the moment she left her body for the first time at fourteen. Nearly two decades later, she is forced out of her comfort zone again when she takes responsibility for her sister's destruction of a fan made of feathers she thought was harmless. That is, until their owner comes to claim her soul and servitude as penance for what he deems a crime.

To top it off, her sister gets into more trouble than she can cope with, and the only one willing to help her is Desdemona. But sometimes the curses we place upon ourselves bind us the tightest. A fact that might just prove fatal.
