Hidden - Hardcover

I grew up thinking that I was just halfblooded and lived with constant reminders that I was only half-human, which made me hated by the elves, and half-elven, which no human could find out about. I was a child that no one cared about, too quiet to be heard, too lost to be helped but also too stubborn to die. I managed to keep these two worlds balanced perfectly for twelve years, but failed to keep my secret the night my mother almost killed me in a fit of rage as she was forced to be sober against her will. In a moment of weakness, I confessed to the stranger who saved my life-a stranger who failed to keep his own identity a secret.Secrets were things I was good at keeping, but when I discovered the secret my own parents were keeping from me, it changed everything. I grew up thinking I was Emery Ricketts, a halfblooded child stuck between worlds, but shortly after my eighteenth birthday I discover that I'm much more than that.I'm not a child lost between worlds, but one that was hidden from the elven realm I spent my entire life fearing, and now that those who've hidden me know they've failed to keep my survival a secret, my life is going to change as I'm forced back into the world I was born to be a part of, a world filled with magic and a dark secret of its own that even I couldn't have imagined. Hidden is the beginning of my story, and as I uncover the secrets that those around me have kept, I begin to realize that nothing is what it seems.
