With his brilliant painter father and inquisitive young stepsister, he’s beginning to appreciate the desert charms of his new home.Then he stumbles onto an abandoned mine called Wizrd—the resting ground of a vengeful Indian spirit that has found no rest; a presence that grants you everything you want and then takes away everything you love; a place where Bryce, the loyal son, will struggle to save his family, and must fight to stay alive.
