The hunt for a dinosaur skeleton buried in the Badlands, bitter rivalries, and a forbidden relationship get together in this beautifully written new novel that's Romeo and Juliet meets Indiana Jones. Anywhere in the Badlands, embedded deep in centuries-buried rock and sand, sits the skeleton of an enormous dinosaur, bigger than anything the overdue nineteenth hundred years world has ever seen. Some legends call it the Dark colored Beauty, using its bones as dark as ebony, but to seventeen-year-old Samuel Bolt it is the "rex," the ruler dinosaur which could put him and his struggling, temperamental archaeologist dad in the annals books (and ideally make his dad forget he's been kicked out of institution), if they can just quarry it out. But Samuel and his dad aren't the sole ones after the rex. For Rachel Cartland this find could be her ticket to a different life, one where her loves of knowledge and excitement aren't just relegated to literature and sitting rooms. Because if she can't demonstrate herself on this expedition with her professor father, the sole adventures she may have to look forward to are relationship or spinsterhood. As their paths cross and the rivalry between their fathers becomes more strong, Samuel and Rachel are forced closer alongside one another. And with both eyeing the same award, their budding relationship seems destined to fail. But as danger looms on the far side of the hills, triggering everyone's secrets to come to light, Samuel and Rachel are compelled to produce a decision. Can they join forces to find their quarry - and with it a new life alongside one another - or will old enmities and prejudices keep them from both the rex and each other?
