14-year-old Will Burrows has little in common with his strange, dysfunctional family. In fact, the only bond he shares with his eccentric father is a passion for archaeological excavation. So when his dad mysteriously vanishes, Will is compelled to dig up the truth behind his disappearance. He unearths the unbelievable: a subterranean society that time forgot.

"The Colony" has existed unchanged for a century, but it's no benign time capsule of a bygone era — because the Colony is ruled by a merciless overclass, the Styx. Will must free his father — is he also about to ignite a revolution?

Tinged with a touch of horror, and in the tradition of such sci-fi classics as Journey to the Center of the Earth, this suspenseful debut — the first in a series — will have a whole new generation of readers digging holes in their backyards!
