Singapore, 1972. Magic is vanishing under the weight of modernization, but in the back alleys, secret societies still channel the power of migrant gods.

Adeline Siow has always been a loner, content with the fire she can summon at her fingertips. That changes when her mother dies in a blaze marked by the symbol of a butterfly. Hunting for answers, Adeline collides with the Red Butterflies, a fearsome girl gang sworn to a fire goddess and led by her mother in secret.

Now, Adeline’s bloodline holds the goddess’s power, and rival gangs are circling. Bodies are piling up with traces of unfamiliar magic, and a dangerous world demands her loyalty.

Can Adeline claim her place among the Butterflies, or will she burn with them?
