Spotlight: Skyboy by Adam Aresty

In Skyboy, a young genius must confront his greatest weakness to survive.

Konstant is a brilliant 17-year-old immigrant whose pride and desire to rise to the top has exposed his blind spot - a failure to collaborate with others. When he wins a nationwide science fair sponsored by Metronome Logistics, the world’s most successful technology company, Konstant and five of his peers are invited to Metro-One, Metronome’s campus in New York City. 

An industrial accident strands them, along with the enigmatic CEO and his daughter, in an underground manufacturing facility. Forced to work together and use their prize-winning inventions to make it out alive, Konstant's greatest fear is realized when he discovers that someone among them is responsible for the attack.
