About this ebook

 ***Winner of International Thriller Writers's Best Ebook Original Novel award!***


Under New York is a vast, dark world: a hundred miles of living, breathing, tunnels. This subterranean labyrinth inhales three million bustling commuters every day. And every day, it breathes them all out again... except for one.


Software multi-millionaire Joe Tesla is trapped in those tunnels by his agoraphobia. One by one, he is uncovering their secrets. First, he discovers a bricked-up presidential train car and its deadly cargo--a contagious madness he must contain before it escapes to...The World Beneath.

Very enjoyable, intriguing read. Mysterious government activities end up in the tunnels underneath New York, where a reclusive multi millionaire tries to untangle the mystery before he is killed.

As a fan of James Rollins, I expected an exciting read from Rebecca Cantrell, since they often write together. I wasn't disappointed! I felt the characters were well written and sympathetic. Even the evil Saddiq, had a tender side to his vile character. Tesla (and Edison) make a great team and I look forward to the next book in this series.

One of the best I've read in a very long time. It grabs you from the first page and never lets go. Lots of action and mystery, you can't wait to see which characters will still be standing at the end.
