An original story with a unique narrative style. Life in Bearmouth is full of hard work and sacrifice. The protagonist has lived there since the age of four. The sunlit world above has become a faded memory. Harsh working conditions, the cruelty of the leaders, and the darkness of the underground tunnels are everyday realities in the mine. When the mysterious Devlin appears and dares to ask the question "Why?", everything changes. The established order begins to crack, and people start to question it. Tension rises, and things start to move. However, no one knows whether the end will bring freedom or destruction.
