Craig Tyler is a journalist taken to a remote mine deep in the Atacama Desert in Chile.

But Tyler's journey has been made in almost complete secrecy. In fact secrecy surrounds everything about the heavily defended mine and its employees. He has been commissioned by a senior executive from the Ross Corporation, Nathan Wood, to deliver a story that he says will astound the world - the discovery of a special mineral that will have massive implications for the future of the world's energy.

Once underground Tyler finds himself involved in an earthquake and the mine collapses all round him. Rescued by two Chilean miners, Sebastian and Vicente, they scramble through pitch-dark tunnels to find one of the mine's many refuges. Finding escape near impossible, they encounter more survivors, and together this disparate group begins its fight for survival against tremendous odds, with only enough water and food to last a few days, the stress and tensions quickly beginning to mount.

Then they discover an unexploded bomb. And with that the further realisation they are not alone down the mine. Something sinister, primeval and malevolent haunts the depths. With the group splintering inevitably into corrosive factions, their fight for survival just got tougher.

Was this an accident? If not, what really happened, and are the perpetrators still among the survivors? What is Area B's terrifying secret? Will they ever escape? Craig Tyler's bid for freedom takes the reader down a labyrinthine maze of darkness and despair, hope and fear, in one of D. M. Mitchell's most original, powerful and spine-tingling thrillers to date.
