The Fifth (Book 1 of The Covenant Series)

Descendants of the accused during the 1600s Salem witch trial, The sons of Ipswich, remain tethered to their place of birth, and the tragic history that cloaks the town remains.

However, times have changed. The secrets of the occult enchant people, and they come from all over, seeking spiritual guidance from the son's parents, who own several mystical businesses and shops around town. Every summer, the towns of Ipswich and Salem, Massachusetts, overflow with hoards of people who make the trip to pursue the truth of The Covenant. While historians and believers alike try to access the powers of the original four families.

On the heels of his final year of high school and his 18th birthday, his well-established intuition tells him that fate will be taking a hand in his life, but he thinks nothing of it until a new family moves into town, claiming to be a part of The Original Five. Together, they are historically known as The Covenant of Salem.

The families are hesitant to take their word for it, but once Theodore Post and his younger sister, Isobel, become friends with the Sons of Ipswich, they begin to test their powers and take steps to learn more about what brought their families together over 331 years ago.
