Publisher's Synopsis
Finding hidden treasure is supposed to be a prosperous event, not life threatening. But when two young lovers find a buried treasure, it sends them on an epic adventure for salvation from a dark, deadly force who wants nothing more than to come back into power in human form. Kensie Wild is only days away from turning eighteen, an event she looks forward to with much anticipation. One evening, Kensie and her boyfriend, Caleb uncover an ancient chest buried in her backyard. Breaking the lock, they discover a chalice, a knife, and a piece of papyrus with a recipe for tea. Opening the box unwittingly released the spirit of an evil Sorcerer locked away by Kensie's ancestor. Now, he is determined to exact his revenge. As evil takes hold of her mother and settles in Kensie's mind, she finds herself on a quest to rebury the newfound treasure in sacred ground, accompanied by Caleb, the advice of her grandmother, and the spirit of her ancestor. Three generations of living family descendants must fight against a terrifying enemy who created the first zombies known to mankind. Kensie is forced to stand against him and return the box to the burial grounds from which this evil spawned. Can Kensie vanquish the Sorcerer and fight the zombies who do his bidding and still save her mother? Or will she succumb to the temptation of the Dark One to the world's utter ruin?
