From the acclaimed and award-winning author of The Hunger comes an eerie, psychological twist on one of the world's most renowned tragedies, the sinking of the Titanic and the ill-fated sail of its sister ship, the Britannic.
Someone, or something, is haunting the ship. Between mysterious disappearances and sudden deaths, the guests of the Titanic have found themselves suspended in an eerie, unsettling twilight zone from the moment they set sail. Several of them, including maid Annie Hebley, guest Mark Fletcher, and millionaires Madeleine Astor and Benjamin Guggenheim, are convinced there's something sinister - almost otherwordly - afoot. But before they can locate the source of the danger, as the world knows, disaster strikes.
Years later, Annie, having survived that fateful night, has attempted to put her life back together. Working as a nurse on the sixth voyage of the Titanic's sister ship, the Britannic, newly refitted as a hospital ship, she happens across an unconscious Mark, now a soldier fighting in World War I. At first, Annie is thrilled and relieved to learn that he too survived the sinking, but soon, Mark's presence awakens deep-buried feelings and secrets, forcing her to reckon with the demons of her past - as they both discover that the terror may not yet be over.
Brilliantly combining the supernatural with the height of historical disaster, The Deep is an exploration of love and destiny, desire and innocence, and, above all, a quest to understand how our choices can lead us inexorably toward our doom.

Critic reviews
"Clever and haunting...Katsu is a wordsmith using vivid imagery and beautiful wording to create a story that will leave you wishing there was more." (Suspense Magazine)
"A riveting, seductively menacing tale of love, loss, and betrayal set amid the glamour of the Titanic, filled with séances, sea witches, and second chances." (Library Journal starred review)
"Painstakingly researched and meticulously plotted.... Though readers will be aware of the inevitable tragedies awaiting, Katsu successfully injects suspense into both time lines, spinning a darkly captivating tale of hauntings, possessions, secrets, and class.... Katsu’s artful writing and calculated pacing keep the pages turning. This is an impressive, horror-tinged trip back in time." (Publishers Weekly)

There was very little ghost:ing going on during the first two thirds of the book and little of it made any sense until the final third. Personally, I don't enjoy when too little information is offered for so long, especially not when the "grand reveal" wasn't all that spectacular.
I've given the story a 3 star rating, but that is solely because I can't actually fault the storytelling. A lackluster.
More sad slice-of-life than horror

The audiobook version was well worth it due to the narrator's fluid transition between accents and the overall strength of her delivery. Though the novel bounces back and forth in time, the various chapters were clearly distinguished, and I never had trouble following the story. Can't recommend this one enough.
