"
Under the Surface is a nail-biting thriller with a paranormal edge, a high-stakes romance, and can't-put-it-down pacing. It transported me to the Paris catacombs right alongside Ruby, where the twists and turns kept me glued to the pages until the very end."
--C. L. Herman, New York Times bestselling author of All of Us Villains "A nightmare we've all had: in a place we don't know well, innocent spontaneity gone awry. Yet, a heart beats fierce throughout this book, from Diana Urban's brilliantly rendered characters to the City of Light itself. It's survival, yes, but more than merely physical:
Under the Surface explores the survival of friendship, optimism, romance, and hope. All in the horrifying presence of the innumerable dead. Urban is magnificent."
--Josh Malerman, New York Times bestselling author of Bird Box and Incidents Around the House
"
Under the Surface is a wild, twisty, romantic adventure that will leave you feeling afraid of the dark, and putting this book down before you reach the end is almost as impossible as escaping the winding catacombs of Paris."
--Ginny Myers Sain, New York Times bestselling author of Dark and Shallow Lies "Fast-paced and thrilling,
Under the Surface has as many dangerous turns and secrets as the catacombs below Paris. Urban's writing and use of alternating narrators keeps the tension high and the pages turning. At the heart of this dark and creepy (in the best way!) survival story is love, friendship, and hope."
--Krystal Marquis, New York Times bestselling author of The Davenports
"An exhilarating adventure filled with twists, secrets, and nonstop tension,

--Alex Aster, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Lightlark "Under the Surface is a claustrophobic, terrifying, jump-scare of a novel that will leave you breathless. Urban perfectly weaves the longing and angst of the love story with an absolutely terrifying adventure through the catacombs. Truly her most terrifying work yet."
--Megan Lally, New York Times bestselling author of That's Not My Name "Urban's sharp banter and engaging voice pull you in, then send you through a maze of frankly terrifying twists that get darker the deeper you go.
Under the Surface is a thrilling heartbreak of a journey, from start to finish."
