Samuel North has just been murdered and sent to Hell. There, in "the Pit," two other damned souls on the run help Samuel escape back to the world of the living to be reunited with the girl he loves. But now Samuel has Hell to pay: the Netherworld has sent three Reapers (unstoppable bounty hunters from Hades) to hunt and kill each of the escaped men. Samuel must solve his own murder and fight for his soul's redemption in order to escape the other side.
