One dare. One mistake. One darkness waiting beneath.
Fourteen-year-old Editi never expected a simple challenge to change everything.
But when a dare leads him and his friends into danger, a normal day becomes a fight for survival. Buried beneath the ruins of a collapsed building, Editi must battle hunger, fear, and the terrifying realization that they are not alone.
As the darkness closes in, the boys discover that some things buried beneath the earth were never meant to be found. And escaping the rubble may only be the beginning.
