After escaping from the pet shop, mouse protagonist Hopper learns he is the Chosen One of the rodents living within the subway tunnels beneath Brooklyn. He befriends the rat prince of Atlantia and struggles to decipher good and evil in the dangerous and unfamiliar underworld. Hopper's journey is arduous, and the story, full of rebellion and heart, will appeal to animal-fantasy fans.
