Hidden Beneath the Shadows (book 1)

13 year old Dakota is struggling with anxiety and depression. To add on to that her 'ability' is getting worse. She doesn't know how to deal with it, constantly swallowed in her thoughts locked up from the outside world living in fear. School is no better. Being known as the freak who never talks. Dakota is lost in her life. No way to fight her problems, but to separate herself from the rest of humanity. She is hidden beneath the shadows of the world. Her whole life sucks, except for her best friend. Who isn't even a human. Just a mere spirit, so she thinks, who completely understands her and her life. He's the only person she can talk to, and actually be herself. But the one thing Colin never tells her, will lead Dakota to make a huge mistake...
