"With one phone call, my life did two things at the exact same moment ... ended and began." Seventeen year old Ashe just buried both of her parents. Forced by circumstance, she leaves her childhood home to move in with an aunt she doesn't know very well ... only to find that the small southern town of Mannix, South Carolina is not like others, that it holds secrets. Ashe has no idea that on her first night she will open a door that will change her life forever. Some of the oldest historical parts, places like Cemetery Raven and Cortland Bridge, are not as abandoned as she thinks, and in the pursuit to ease her sorrow, Ashe follows a path that leads her directly to the Underground; a secret world no mortal was ever supposed to know exists. The question is ... can she survive it? Winner overall in Wattpad's Mystery Prompt READER'S RAVE @Saramitra Wow! This is lit. It's completely on a different level.
