Children afflicted with Morte are fated to die by their own hand. This rare illness shows no regard for class or nationality, bringing out both the best and worst in those it claims, ultimately forcing them to end their lives while still young. At the sinister orphanage Doceo, newcomer Sasha meets the beautiful Manon, a girl who repeatedly appears covered in bruises. Convinced that Manon's terrifying advisor Doudou Claverie is the cause, Sasha crafts a reckless scheme to ensure Doudou never comes near Manon again. Meanwhile, the young and disillusioned writer Dante Caggiano begins working at Hotel Gratia, a cheerful foster home for children diagnosed with Morte. But when death finally arrives at Gratia's halls, Dante cannot escape the suspicion that this may have nothing to do with the disease.
