Instead Ren & Neven flee with Reapers in hot pursuit. The Keeper of Night could have been your average quest adventure and travelogue. However, her half- and very white brother Neven insists on coming too. Ren flees London in search of her mother and a possible new homeland in Japan. Street lamps explode, injuring the High Reaper’s daughter. This time Ren can’t control her Shinigami power that taps into light. With the focus on anthropomorphic “deaths” (yes, multiple deaths with one Death), the title The Keeper of Night makes total sense.Ī High Reaper or High Reaper’s daughter who is a High Reaper in training (I’m not quite sure which) abuses her powers and her position to incite a gang of her friends to bully and assault Ren. The problem is, she’s also half-Japanese, which makes her a Shinigami or Japanese death spirit too.

Ren is a Reaper living in London in a society of Reapers.
