Publisher's summary

A Wall Street Journal bestselling series.

An explosive conspiracy sets the ocean roiling for a deep-diving investigator in a riveting thriller by the author of the Amazon Charts bestseller The Girl Beneath the Sea.

A distress call draws rescuers Sloan McPherson and the Underwater Investigation Unit to a cruise ship off the coast of Fort Lauderdale that’s sinking from a mysterious explosion. When it appears to be the work of an ecoterrorist and other ships are threatened, it becomes a race against time. More clues are discovered, and evidence is in danger of being washed away by a coming tropical storm. Sloan grows concerned that key details are being ignored, and a strange lack of urgency by authorities sets off alarms.

As the troubling questions compound, Sloan is determined to chase down every lead she has. Her persistence is getting her closer to the truth: that there’s something far more troubling at play than the official explanation. It’s also putting Sloan on a collision course with an enemy more powerful than she realizes, in a case so complex and deadly it may be impossible to prove. Now cracking the case is a matter of staying one step ahead of someone with every resource imaginable to bury Sloan and everything she knows.

Critic reviews

“A riveting novel that will be of particular interest to fans of police procedurals and action/adventure suspense thrillers…brilliantly performed by talented narrator Susannah Jones. Original, entertaining, flawless.” Midwest Book Review

“Mayne provides a complex scenario that will leave listeners guessing what will happen next. The narration is well performed by Susannah Jones.” Library Journal

“The fast-paced plot is filled to the brim with fascinating characters, and the locale is exceptional—both above and below the waterline. One doesn’t have to be a nautical adventure fan to enjoy this nail-biter.” Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Lots of Twists to Story

I really love the way the story continued to evolve into something different at every twist. Sloane is back to doing everything without back up. I think she almost gets killed 3 or 4 times in each book. Love the series!!!

Another good one

I seem to always enjoy Andrew Mayne's novels. I wish they were longer. I'm always sad when they end, and look forward to the next one if it's a series.

Sea Storm

What an exciting read! The characters were amusing and believable at the same time.
Would love to see this in a movie or short series

Still good

But seemed more like a regular crime story. Need more diving, more family. Less cop.

Great story, great narrator.

This is a new author for me. This is the third book in this series I’ve read and I am loved each one. I can’t wait to get my next credit so that I can read number four. I love the diving theme and the fact that much of the action takes place in Florida and for additional tension you have the alligators and sharks.

Don't Read It, LISTEN To The Book

I've been following the Underwater Investigation Unit since Book 1 and I'm still hooked! I love Susannah Jones' narration so much, she truly brings the characters to life for me. I can picture their demeanors and reactions thanks to the narration. I put the book at 1.15x speed and it's perfect. For me, Jones' many different voices and inflections make her one of my favorite narrators. Furthermore, Andrew Maybe is at the top of his game with this thriller.
When a cruise ship suffers a mysterious explosion, it's up to Sloan McPherson and her team to get to the bottom of it all. Unlike the Swamp Killer case of Book 2, this mystery reminds me of the corruption webs Sloan had to untangle in Book 1. The story was easy to follow but full of surprises, suspense, Sloan's sass, and George Salar's dry wit.
And just like with Book 1, there are numerous descriptions of scuba diving and ocean animal behavior which make this series my favorite mystery series to read. I love the ocean, and this book has taught me several interesting things I didn't know about scuba diving and ocean creatures thanks to Sloan's internal dialogue. This all makes sense because author Andrew Mayne is a scuba diver too.
I cannot WAIT for Book 4

Satisfying

Well-narrated story of good guys winning against the big, bad corrupt powerful man who tries to destroy their lives and careers. No twists or turns once the bad guy is identified, but explosions, guns, near-misses and family support. Heroine is above extraordinary, and very lucky.
