Publisher's Synopsis
Her name was Ellie, short for Elizabeth, and that's all she could remember.
Imagine waking up in a room much like your own, surrounded by things similar to what you own, but without the familiar reality you know. Instead everything is in a state of decay and bizarre horrors lurk in every shadow.This is where Ellie finds herself, in a world where all streets and natural ground are replaced with cold metal grates above gross, dark water. In a world where it is always night and the only sky to be seen is a twisted mess of black clouds below a red sky. With a close friend of hers, Kate, also arriving in this world, the race is on to find each other, with Kate beginning to lose her memories at an alarming rate, and Ellie struggling to remember hers at all. All the while there is the looming threat of something known as the "Others", who if they find you, turn you into a mindless slave. Along her journey, Ellie must learn to trust in the strange people she finds in order to not only survive the madhouse that surrounds her, but also come to grips with a hidden power waiting deep inside her. Can she and Kate find each other in time? Or will they both lose all sense of who they were and wind up slaves to some unknown, horrifying power?
