      Emilia cestuje po boku záhadného princa Wratha do Siedmich kruhov, kde ju čaká lákavý svet nerestí. Zaprisahala sa, že urobí všetko, čo bude v jej silách, len aby pomstila zbytočnú smrť svojej sestry Vittorie... aj keby sa mala vydať za samotného kráľa démonov, Pridea. Najdôležitejšie pravidlo Hriešnych: Nedôveruj nikomu! Vo svete, kde si princovia vrážajú navzájom dýky do chrbta, obklopená luxusom, dostávajúc pozvánky na večierky, sa Emilia cíti veľmi osamelo. Indície, ktoré by mali viesť k odhaleniu vraha Vittorie, sú protichodné a pochybuje aj o tom, že Wrathovi, svojmu spojencovi vos vete ľudí, môže dôverovať. Skrýva pred ňou svoju pravú, nebezpečnú tvár? Emilia v tejto časti čelí skúškam, hľadá magické predmety, odhaľuje postupne stopy minulosti a snáď dostane aj odpovede, po ktorých tak veľmi túži. Jedna sestra. Dvaja hriešni princovia. Nekonečný podvod so zmesou pomsty... Vitajte v pekle.
