没落華族令嬢が生贄として嫁いだ先。
それは愛を知らず、人を嫌う死神だったーー
帝都で働く旧華族・正岡千鶴は、
病を流行らせ人々を死へと導く死神の怒りを鎮めるため、「生贄の花嫁」に選ばれるが…
新鋭が繊細な筆致で描き出す、孤独な二人の明治浪漫譚。
When the daughter of a fallen noble family is chosen to become a sacrificial bride, her groom is none other than the Shinigami— a cold-hearted, human-hating God of Death.
Chizuru works for the Sanjou family, a newly made noble house with a thriving textiles factory in Koishigawa. However, as the daughter of a family which once ranked far higher than the Sanjous, Chizuru receives nothing but scorn and contempt from her new employers.
Without warning, a plague breaks out in the town and victims of the disease all die with the same words on their lips: ‘The Shinigami stands at my bedside.’
In a desperate attempt to appease the god who brought the plague upon them, Chizuru is selected as a sacrificial bride.
This is a story of a ruined noble, a God of Death, and the romance that blossoms between their two lonely souls.
