Quando sua sorella sparisce, Ophelia ha un solo modo per trovarla: partecipare a Phantasma, una competizione mortale all'interno di un maniero infestato, e rivendicare il premio in palio, un singolo desiderio. Dovrà affrontare nove sfide, una più pericolosa della precedente, e non solo. Dovrà sopravvivere a spietati concorrenti pronti a tutto pur di eliminare i rivali, demoni tentatori in sontuose sale da ballo, corridoi contorti e stanze segrete. Affascinante, arrogante e incredibilmente attraente, Blackwell sostiene di poterla guidare nelle prove letali.
