Soon they find themselves deep underground, where they unearth a dark and terrifying secret—a secret which may cost them their lives.

Fourteen-year-old Will Burrows lives with his parents and younger sister Rebecca in London. He has little in common with any of them, except for a passion for digging, which he shares with his father, a museum curator and doctor of archaeology. When his father suddenly disappears after a row with his mother, the police believe he has just gone away for a while to cool down. But Will is unconvinced, and decides to investigate with his best friend, Chester.

In his quest to find his father, Will is plunged even deeper underground. As if things weren't bad enough already he stumbles across a Styx plot with terrible implications for the world above and his murderous stepsister who isn't finished yet.

Roderick Gordon & Brian Williams' Tunnels rose from its fanatical underground following to become a New York Times bestseller. In this eagerly anticipated sequel, Will Burrows plunges ever deeper into the subterranean Colony to find his father. But while he searches, the ruling overclass known as the Styx plots to unleash a plague on Topsoilers. Can Will rescue his brethren from total annihilation? Or will he be too busy saving his own skin?
