Description
Strip away every comfort within your world, all of your human needs in an advanced society — and you might discover who you truly are.
On an ordinary workday in a high-security office built within a mountain, employees are absorbed in coding secret lab project information. Their day suddenly shatters when the world they know collapses and death surrounds them. Those who survive face a world of wreckage, fear, darkness, and loss.
What was is gone.
The small group of survivors must confront their fears, losses, and the silent darkness that stands with them. They must explore the depths of the mountain and their own desire to survive. When all reason to hope seems lost, they must find the path to their inner strength, their courage, and their will to endure.
In the Mountain by Dottie Lee is a gripping, soul-searching adventure exploring what remains within us when destruction erases the life we knew—a story of endurance, invention, and the strength that binds us when the world suddenly disappears.
A Note From the Publisher
Advance Praise
"In this, the author does a spectacular job of creating visuals, from a firelit camp beside an underground river to a mound of debris where a sliver of hope lay. Well written and immersive, this is a great book for readers who enjoy claustrophobic, textured disaster fiction and survival stories built around a wildly diverse group." - Reader's Favorite
"The target audience is readers who enjoy survival fiction, disaster fiction, adventure, found-family stories, and suspense. Readers who liked the problem-solving stamina of Andy Weir’s The Martian may appreciate this book’s focus on ingenuity under pressure, though Lee’s novel is warmer, more communal, and less sleekly scientific. A mountain collapses in this book, but what remains standing is the stubborn architecture of human care." - Literary Titan
"Dottie Lee’s In the Mountain stirs up a terrifically human response in the reader, connecting deep-down to the universal goal to survive." - Independent Book Review
