The Dark Above: A Novel

Summary

In this sequel to the critically acclaimed novel that grabbed fans of X-Files and Stranger Things, Jeremy Finley returns with another thriller full of government cover-ups and the supernatural.

For most of his life, William Chance has been the living proof that his grandmother and her fellow missing persons researchers were right all along about the terror from the stars. Now, he’s avoiding the limelight and hiding out from everyone, including his family. He knows he can avoid everything, except for the nightmares: fires, storms, disease, and violence—he dreams of it all.

When he’s suddenly exposed, he finds that the media, government operatives, and renegade true believers are desperate to find him, but he has another mission. Joined by a girl with terrifying abilities, he begins a desperate journey across the United States to find the others who share his dreams that foretell of the final days of the world.

Jeremy Finley’s debut, The Darkest Time of Night, was called “outstanding” in a starred review from Publishers Weekly and was a June 2018 SIBA Okra Selection. Now, he continues the story of Lynn and William, fifteen years later in a new fast-paced thriller full of suspense and government cover-ups, perfect for thriller and supernatural fans alike.
