Waiting On Wednesday [@Stefan_Bachmann @harperteen @GreenwillowBook]

Waiting On Wednesday is hosted by Breaking the Spine

My pick for this week:



A DROP OF NIGHT by Stefan Bachmann

Five gifted teenagers are selected out of hundreds of other candidates to fly to France and help with the excavation of a vast, underground palace buried a hundred feet below the suburbs of Paris. Built in the 1780's to hide an aristocratic family and a mad duke during the French Revolution, the palace was sealed after the aristocrats fled there. No one has set foot in it for over two centuries.

Now, in the present day, the teenagers enter with cutting-edge technology, state-of-the-art security, scientists and chaperones. And then a brutal accident occurs. No way out. Caught in the dark.

They will have to fight to survive. But are they really alone in the depths?

Why?

A secret, underground Parisian palace, sealed for almost two and a half centuries? Teenagers selected to help excavate it? Then it all turns into a (creepy sounding) thriller? Oh, yes, please!

I really can't put into word type things how appealing I find this book (and its cover).




That's my pick for this week, what's yours? Tell me in the comments and/or link me to your own post!
