The river was never meant to be crossed.
For eighteen years Maria Snowfield believed her parents were hiding something.
She just never expected it to be an entire world.
When Maria crosses a quiet forest stream one summer night, she unknowingly steps across the border into Realm Ten - the vampire realm. Within hours she is captured, surrounded by creatures she thought only existed in stories, and brought before the realm's ancient ruler, Maverick.
But Maria's arrival was not an accident.
Across fourteen hidden realms, ancient Pillars hold the balance of the supernatural world. Now the Pillars are beginning to stir, and a prophecy written thousands of years ago may finally be unfolding.
Maria carries a secret even she does not understand - one powerful enough to change every realm forever.
And some are willing to start a war to claim it.
The Fourteen Pillars: Wrong Side of the River is the first book in an epic fantasy saga filled with ancient magic, hidden worlds, dangerous alliances, and a destiny that could unite - or destroy - fourteen realms.
