Publisher's Synopsis
The year is 1940 and the North and South territories of the former Republic of Goryeo are at war. When her parents become casualties of war and her only brother takes over command of the South's resistance forces, Hwang So Eun is sent undercover to infiltrate the household of the infamous Lieutenant General Han Jinhwan-the one they call "the Devil." "He's the devil in disguise." That was the kind of man that everyone though he was. Thousands of lives had been ended in his hands, families torn apart, homes consumed by flames. They feared him, they hated him and they wanted him dead. "He has no weaknesses." That was what they told her when they sent her to his side. Her mission? To uncover a single crack beneath the seemingly perfect facade of the devil. She thought she had prepared herself for everything that was to be expected. She didn't expect him.
