Powerful and passionate. The Dig brings such life , such mystical creativity and vibrance with a unique ancient twist. I just loved how different this one is and sank right into the storyline. Audrey really knows how to capture her readers.Every year Zoe always goes across seas to visit with her aunt and uncle, Sophia and Alex. Not only does she go to visit, she goes to dig. She loves to find artifacts hidden away from years ago.  All the other kids find this weird. All the kids at school seem to know Zoe as the outcast, so they just ignore her. She's ok with it. Always has been. It's almost time to go to Greece again and usually Zoe is just crazy excited and yeah, she is. But this time something feels just a little off. Like maybe she shouldn't go. Of course, that would be nuts because she always goes. This is what she spends all year looking forward to. Spending the final days at school socializing when she spent the whole year hidden away, she is now ready to head on out!Once the plane finally lands and she meets with her relatives, goes through the lowdown about the new dig site and the other college kids that are helping out, she is ready to get started. She has been warned not to wander in the red zones, not to do this or that. She knows those rules don't actually apply to her though. So when she goes her own way and finds a hidden room and a strange object and um, touches it when she um, knows better, she just so happens to find herself... in a whole new world of problems, and dilemmas.All she wants to do is get home, yet she is told that she is home, and not only that but they think she is a goddess. Let's hope both worlds don't collide. Let's hope Zoe finds that inner goddess everyone seems to be talking about. So much confusion, and so much beauty lie in this world she is stuck in, but she has to get out. Matters only gets worse when she realizes that the Gods want her dead. This world isn't fit for Zoe and she is falling in love with a guy she doesn't even know. Now, her life is being threatened. How can she escape?
