Magic, adventure, and danger collide in an unsuspecting small town. Sixteen-year-old Mia Kish's small town of Fenton, Colorado, is known for three things: being home to the world's tallest sycamore tree, the national chicken thigh-eating contest, and one of the ritziest boarding schools in the country, Westbrook Academy. But when emergency sirens start blaring and Westbrook is put on lockdown, quarantined and surrounded by soldiers who shoot first and ask questions later, Mia realizes she's only just beginning to discover what makes Fenton special. The answer is behind the wall of the Cave, a.k.a. Fenton Electronics, of which her father is the director. Mia's dad has always been secretive about his work, allowing only that he's working for the government. Unless Mia is willing to let the whole town succumb to a strange illness that ages people years in a matter of hours, the end result death, she's got to break quarantine, escape the school grounds, and outsmart armed soldiers to uncover the truth.…

—Matthew Quick, New York Times Bestselling author of The Silver Linings Playbook and Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock.
Nowhere to escape but below.
Panic grips sixteen-year-old Mia Kish’s boarding school, Westbrook Academy, when a mysterious quarantine is suddenly enforced by a small army of soldiers who shoot first and ask questions later. The quarantine makes no sense—but then students and faculty inexplicably begin to break down. Their illness is an aggressive virus that ages its victims years in only a matter of hours. The end result? Death.
No one can explain what’s going or has any idea what to do. Except Mia.
Because she knows something that no one else does. And she knows the only place to escape to get answers...But what she finds may be even more horrific than anything that came before.
* “The contemporary implications of the story ring unnervingly true. A fast-paced, thrilling adventure story that begs for a sequel.”—Booklist, starred review
"Seth Fishman kills it in every possible way."
—Margaret Stohl, New York Times Bestselling co-author of Beautiful Creatures and Icons.
"A crackling thriller that keeps you turning the pages until the very end."
—Jennifer Smith, author of The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight.
