Mort's new job involves assisting Death with his duties, but things take an unexpected turn when Mort prevents the death of a princess named Keli. This act disrupts the natural order of things and creates chaos in the Discworld. As a result, Mort must navigate the consequences of his actions, all while trying to rectify the balance of life and death.
