Shadows attack… Sixteen year-old Dani Prado is not fond of the dark. In fact, it terrifies her. So, when something crawls from the depths of the earth through the local mine to snatch people and pets from her small town at night, she follows the police chief’s directives and stays in her house after the sun goes down each day. But now her younger brother Bobby is counted among the missing and she fears the worst. The police won’t help and the rest of the town is afraid to go looking for the captives, too. Wait, they tell her, until reinforcements come to aid them. Unable to tolerate the thought of her brother in the clutches of some shadowy monster while she waits, she decides to go into the mine looking for him, joined by her mother and a few friends. She has to solve the mystery of the missing people, and bring them back. If she can. The darkness beckons and the shadowling awaits. Dani will need every bit of her skill, ingenuity, and courage to enter a world without light, find her brother, and return. Hopefully with her body and mind still intact.
