Ben and Caleb Mackee have always had terrible luck.
Broken bikes, lost keys, strange accidents no matter what they do, something always goes wrong. But everything changes the night a tiny wood fairy named Mea appears in their bedroom with an unbelievable truth:
Their family has been cursed for generations.
The only way to break the curse is to rebuild the lost crown of the Fairy King a powerful crown once held together by eleven magical gems scattered across hidden realms of nature.
The first gem the Emerald of the Forest is hidden deep in the swamps behind their home in the Mississippi Delta.
With the help of their family, their loyal dogs, and new friends, Ben and Caleb set out into the mysterious woods, following clues left behind in their fathers journal. But as they uncover the secrets of the forest, they quickly realize they are not alone.
Shadow creatures lurk in the trees.
A powerful dark fairy king named Varyn is searching for the gems.
And every step closer to breaking the curse brings them closer to danger.
As Ben begins to unlock a connection to the magic of the forest, and Caleb discovers he can communicate with animals, the brothers must learn to trust their strengths and each other if they hope to protect the Emerald.
Because this is only the first step.
And the journey to break the curse has just begun.
