"Les Indes Noires" by Jules Verne is a novel published in 1877. When engineer James Starr receives a mysterious summons from former mine foreman Simon Ford, he returns to the supposedly exhausted coal mines of Aberfoyle, Scotland.

But inexplicable phenomena threaten the operation, and deep in the tunnels they find Nell, a young girl who has never seen daylight. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
