DEATH IS JUST THE BEGINNING

They killed her. She came back. Now it's her turn. Jiang Yue had everything—beauty, wealth, a loving husband, and a best friend she trusted with her life. Then her husband chained a concrete block to her ankles and pushed her off a bridge. Her best friend of fifteen years waved goodbye as she sank. She died in the cold water of Heshan River, her lungs burning, her heart full of hatred— And woke up five years in the past. Now 22 again, Jiang Yue has returned to the day before she first met her future murderer. She knows every lie he'll tell, every trap he'll set, every smile that hides his rotten soul. But rebirth came with a price. She can see the dead now. Ghosts walk among the living, invisible to everyone but her. Shadows whisper secrets. The supernatural world has opened its doors—and something hungry followed her back from the other side. The Boundary Keeper demands payment: 100 guilty souls, or innocents die in her place. Recruited by the mysterious Special Investigations Bureau, Jiang Yue becomes a hunter of human monsters—killers, traffickers, and predators who escaped justice. Each soul she delivers pays down her debt. Each kill brings her closer to freedom. And all the while, she plays the perfect game with her future murderers. Smiling at the man who will drown her. Laughing with the friend who will betray her. Gathering evidence. Building her case. Waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Lin Haoran thinks he's found his next victim. Xu Meilin thinks her schemes are invisible. They don't know that she remembers everything. They don't know she's already killed. They don't know about the ghost who wants them dead as much as she does. The woman they murdered is standing right in front of them—and she's smiling. QUESTION HOOK VERSION: What would you do if you woke up five years before your own murder? Would you run? Would you hide? Would you change your fate? Jiang Yue chose none of those options. She chose revenge. Reborn with the ability to see the dead and bound by a debt of blood, she walks between worlds—hunting guilty souls by night, playing the perfect victim by day. Her husband is a murderer. Her best friend is a snake. And the entity that brought her back is always hungry. But Jiang Yue isn't afraid anymore. She's already died once. What else is there to fear?
