Esilda, Marion, Charlotte, and Rose are women tethered through time, entwined by the fickle threads of love, blood, and witchcraft. Each is plagued by their own separate tragedy—some centuries apart—that connect their fates and alter the world in unpredictable ways. For one, sorrow leads to a desperate vow, and a dark spirit is unleashed. What was once human becomes vengeance incarnate, an entity tormented by grief and molded by injustice. An urban legend with an unquenchable thirst for retribution. A beacon for the hopeless.

Is this beautiful, unearthly creature what humanity needs to right its many wrongs? Those who believe so emulate and revere her. Others will risk everything to stop her.

The lover. The witch. The hunter. The daughter. Who will rise…and who will fall?

Rise is an evocative paranormal fantasy told by different voices, in different time periods, woven together by a legacy of heartbreak and dark magic.
