  <default_description>&lt;b&gt;What if a woman sold her soul to a demon
and 300 years later wanted it back?&lt;/b&gt;

In the 17th century, a woman is ripped from her husband's arms, thrown in jail, and then set afire as a witch. Saved from the flames by an ancient Sumerian demon, she becomes the Black Ghost, his Ageless assassin gifted with otherworldly skills and superbly trained in martial arts.

Centuries pass before Maliha Crayne finds a way out of the life she hates.

If she saves as many lives as she's taken, she'll break the demon's hold on her.

If she fails, she will suffer the demon's torment ... forever.</default_description>
