For 16-year-old Sadie Sanders, dealing with the dead is growing tiresome, especially when they expect her to be their messenger from the afterlife. But when her family moves to Salem, Massachusetts, and she finds the diary of a young girl named Elizabeth who was accused of witchcraft, she may need some help. Soon, Elizabeth begins to haunt Sadie, first in her dreams and then when she's awake. As Sadie delves into Elizabeth's journal, she slowly uncovers the secret Elizabeth needs to reveal, and it's one that could change the course of history. Sadie needs help, and she wonders who, if anyone, she can tell about it. Worried that her friends and family wouldn't believe her, or worse, prevent her from continuing her journey to find the truth, Sadie has a choice to make...and it's not going to be an easy one.
