"My plan: Get into the city. Get Nadia. Find a way out. Simple."
A week ago, seventeen-year-old Lela Santos’s best friend, Nadia, killed herself. Today, thanks to a farewell ritual gone awry, Lela is standing in paradise, looking upon a vast gated city in the distance – hell. No one willingly walks through the Suicide Gates, into a place smothered in darkness and infested with depraved creatures. But Lela isn’t just anyone–she’s determined to save her best friend’s soul, even if it means sacrificing her eternal afterlife.
As Lela struggles to find Nadia, she’s captured by the Guards, enormous, not-quite-human creatures that patrol the dark city’s endless streets. Their all-too human leader, Malachi, is unlike them in every way except one: his deadly efficiency. When he meets Lela, Malachi forms his own plan: get her out of the city, even if it means she must leave Nadia behind. Malachi knows something Lela doesn’t–the dark city isn’t the worst place Lela could end up, and he will stop at nothing to keep her from that fate.
Sanctum is Sarah Fine’s first novel.

From the Back Cover:
The stubble on his jaw scraped against my temple as he spoke. "You said you sneaked into the city. Didn't you arrive at the Suicide Gates?"
"No, not really. When I . . . died, I arrived outside, in a field. But I saw the city, and I knew that's where she was. I couldn't stay out there when I knew Nadia was trapped in here."
"Are you telling me you arrived in the Countryside and chose to come into the city? To rescue your friend?" He sounded completely baffled.
I clenched my teeth. "I have to find her. It's the only reason I'm here."
