Everyone knows about the monsters.  The ones who lurk beneath the surface of the Earth, in the darkest corners and the darkest crevices, leaking into the daylight to snatch the hearts of their victims.
These are the monsters eighteen-year-old Crew has signed up to kill.  By joining the Heartless, the most vicious military sect in the nation, he's agreed to go underground, into the miles-long tunnels and caves, to hunt the monsters that few people have truly ever seen.
Monsters like seventeen-year-old Britta.  Roaming the caves below ground, hiding from the Heartless and doing what she can to survive.  Because if she can't find a way to steal a human heart by her eighteenth birthday, her life will end.
But when Crew and Britta cross paths their lives are suddenly thrown upside down as they unwittingly stumble right into the arms of their enemies.  Each with their own secret that could break their worlds; a secret that could kill Crew's career, and a secret that could snap their fragile trust.  That Crew, a member of the Heartless, has never had the guts to kill.  And that Britta, slowly winning the heart of the only human she's ever known, has taken more lives than he could possibly imagine.

Beneath the Shadowlanders by ManderRitzert
50 parts Complete
We knew something wasn't right from the moment we awoke. It was like something was missing - a part of our very souls - and we couldn't sense the deficiency, no matter how hard we tried. A hundred million eyes adjusted to the dark all at once, all surprised to be awakened so soon. We ran through our checklists of limbs and senses, drawing ourselves out of our dreams piece by piece. Some went back to sleep, unaware, unbothered, too tired to notice the difference. Some lay in bed, too anxious to stand until the light of dawn crept through their windows at last, and they were sure the monsters in their closets had gone back to sleep. Some leapt from their slumbers, more keenly aware than others that the missing pieces were important. But we didn't know. We couldn't have. Not until we found ourselves standing in the light and discovered: We no longer had shadows.
