What if you had the power to bring back someone you lost?
Fifteen-year-old Jessie Reed would do anything to keep her parents together. But when her father inherits an old house from mysterious Cousin Dorothy, Jessie accompanies him to the seaport village of Beauport, while her mother stays behind in New York City.
Jessie stumbles across the isolated trails of Angel Falls, a wild and beautiful place that holds the ruins of a three- hundred-year-old town with a strange history. There she encounters Jared Younger, a sixteen-year-old local boy who considers these forbidden woods his own.
Jared feels powerless to save his father, an artist crippled by depression—until a series of unexplainable events brings him face to face with a power he never knew he had. Jared’s teacher, Chris Delany offers to help him control the strange thing that’s happening to him—but are Delany’s motives as pure as they seem? Or, as Jessie suspects, does Delany have a secret agenda of his own that puts Jared in danger?
Jessie and Jared discover that the truth is far more dangerous than they could have imagined.
