But Dis Pater isn't the only deity she has to fear.

Frankie's father has learned of her journey down to his domain, and he won't take no for an answer when he welcomes her into his home. As if one MIA parent materializing wasn't bad enough, her mother arrives with her own emotional baggage in hand. Forget the perils of traversing the underworld. Navigating this family reunion just might be what kills her.
