Set in a world of immortal gods, their rivalries, and humans caught in the middle, Marie Lu's Mortal Things follows Rose Lin Fairchild, a woman reluctantly serving as the Harbinger for the god of Death, Raven. When a murder among the gods sparks her rise to prominence and a chance to save her friend, Rose must navigate divine politics, dangerous secrets, and an evolving connection with a fellow Harbinger.
