After 9th grader Jack Perdu has a serious accident, he needs to go to see a doctor in New York. Before he leaves, he makes a new friend at the subway station- a girl Jack's age named Euri. Euri offers to show Jack around the station before he leaves on his train, and he follows her.
As they go down in to the subway station's secret places, Jack notices something weird about Euri. As they venture ever deeper towards the heart of the station, he learns more about the mysterious girl. And he learns that she might be able to help find Jack's dead mother. But time for the two is running out.
Katherine Marsh locks you in from page one. She keeps you on the edge of your seat wondering if Jack and Euri will ever leave the station alive. A very good read for everyone who is into suspense. All said, this book is a bright star in every library, and will be enjoyed for many years to come.
RATING: 5 out of 5.
