Antigone's life is one big oxymoron. She has found love, but she knows that it cannot last. Her whole life has set her up to take over for Death. The more she learns, the more Antigone becomes aware that this is not the life—or death—that she wants for herself. She refuses to settle for a future that has been set out for her. But, will her refusal to accept her destiny destroy everything and everyone that she loves? How can she choose between a future with the love of her life, and her family?
