Add to Goodreads

Matthew has loved Ariel from the moment he found her in the tunnels, her bee's wings falling away. They live in Safe, an underground refuge for those fleeing the city Above—like Whisper, who speaks to ghosts, and Jack Flash, who can shoot lightning from his fingers.

But one terrifying night, an old enemy invades Safe with an army of shadows, and only Matthew, Ariel, and a few friends escape Above. As Matthew unravels the mystery of Safe's history and the shadows' attack, he realizes he must find a way to remake his home—not just for himself, but for Ariel, who needs him more than ever before.

  8. I hardly ever hear of books being set in Canada, and this is in Toronto! I've been to Toronto tons of times. I always get super excited when I see this cover because of the Toronto skyline.

    It sounds really unique as well! Awesome pick.

  11. I like the sound of this as well. I remember reading that it might be set in Canada, which isn't the norm and if that's true, look forward to reading it even more.
