Ciel is the remaining heir to the Phantomhive manor, determined to uncover the truth behind the death of his parents. Sebastian Michaelis is a demon of the highest order with almost unlimited power and style. Because, after all, he is one Hell of a Butler. And in the meanwhile, Sebastian will attend to Ciel's every beck and call with poise and flash and style.

Through twists and turns and horror an fantasy, the Phantomhive household fight the good fight for Queen and country, all to re-establish the good name of the Phantomhive household.

Along the way, they also meet the Death Gods in charge of harvesting souls, in particular William, the tedious manager of the Grim Reaper Dispatch, and Grell Sutcliff, the sharp-toothed effeminate Grim Reaper as fond of Sebastian as he is of himself. In the city of London, while investigating a string of suspicious deaths, Ciel calls upon Undertaker, an enigmatic figure fond of sleeping in coffins and requesting jokes in exchange for information. Fond of any and all things pink and cute and engaged to Ciel, Lady Elizabeth wants nothing more than to bring a smile to her dearest cousin's face again. Also stopping by is Ciel's blonde, bouncy, somewhat oblivious cousin by marriage, Elizabeth. It is unclear if anyone in the manor is aware of Sebastian's demonic powers/persona besides Ciel, but that hardly seems to matter. Handling the manor are Ciel's ever-faithful employees: Finnian, the youthful gardener with incredible hidden strength Mey-Rin, the near-sighted maid who keeps a handy arsenal hidden away Bardroy, the incompetent American cook who can find more than one chemical use for flour and Tanaka, the steward. Now bound as Master and Butler, Ciel and Sebastian return Phantomhive manor to it's glory in service to the Crown, drawn to investigate strange happenings, murders, and intrigues at the behest of Her Majesty, Queen Victoria. Drawn to Ciel's side by his cries for vengeance, Sebastian forges a contract with the young Phantomhive heir: obedience and servitude to discover the faces of the murderers in exchange for Ciel's soul.
