Synopsis
"A young woman in Paris goes to a party in the enormous labyrinth of limestone tunnels beneath Paris. When she becomes separated from her friends, she is convinced something is chasing her through the dark tunnels"
Review:
This book started out strong and then went in a direction that I was not expecting. The character development was great and I was rooting for most of the main characters to get out of the situation that they were in. I found the plot of the story more suspenseful than scary. I did feel claustrophobic and deathly afraid of the dark as I ventured with each of the characters. Overall, it was a pretty decent storyline with small spurts of creepiness.
