Jaelah knows she's special.

In her village deep underground, she knows she doesn't want to be a
crystal runner. Not for her a life of filling crystals with light and life. No!
Jaelah wants adventure - she wants to mix with the surface dwellers, like
her grandfather.

The dimming of their light source gives Jaelah the chance she's been
looking for. Dragging twin brother Aydan behind her, she sets off to seek
answers.

She discovers their problems are not all that is wrong and that, in these
times of terrifying change, the twins must work together with Kaen, prince
of the surface dwellers, to save both their worlds.
