First book in The Risen Saga When sixteen-year-old Ava Robinson finds an ancient necklace in her backyard, she discovers her abilities and is introduced to the mysterious Hidden World. She's accidentally raised the dead by unburying the necklace linked to a witch named Emma Livingston. Emma explains the Hidden World to Ava in hopes that she'll help her stay in the real world instead of falling back into the endless abyss that she was so eager to escape. When Ava's best friend gets attacked, she changes her plans and struggles to help him instead, looking to her family for help, only to realize that family isn't as strong as one would think. Meanwhile, Emma visits her past life-with a biting past-once more to try to help Ava so she will help her, still set on self-preservation. Ava becomes associated with an underground force hidden from even the most perceptive eyes of the Hidden World and finds that they are in imminent danger from a traitor that nobody expected except Ava. It is a matter of life and death at the hands of a sixteen-year-old girl. With the revelation of her nature and her blood, is she strong enough to withstand the weight?
