In the bestselling tradition of CLIVE CUSSLER
Hold your breath....
HE'S BRAVED THE DARKEST WATERS...
BUT NOW HE'S WAY OUT OF HIS DEPTH.
Ben Gannon is the best deep-sea recovery expert in the business. No salvage is too deep, no job too risky. But when Ben and his crew find several bodies—shot—in a helicopter wreck, the risk becomes more deadly than even the most hostile waters.
Lured to an ultra-high-tech oil rig in the middle of the ocean, Gannon finds himself thrown into a deadly game of cat and mouse against a corps of trained killers. Trapped in the balance—the lives of everyone aboard the rig. With no hope of rescue, and nowhere to hide, Gannon must survive long enough to stop a murderous fanatic's devastating plans. And if he fails this time, there's no coming up for air.
CRASH DIVE
Drawing from his own experiences as a professional oil field diver and independent salvage operator, John McKinna has crafted a white-knuckle thriller of international intrigue and terror that will take your breath away....
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this maritime thriller, rough-and-ready commercial diver Ben Gannon and his partner, Rolly Savard, are called out to an offshore drilling station in the Gulf of Mexico for what they expect to be a routine repair job. The timing is awful: Ben had just made plans to sail to Mexico with his girlfriend, Sasha, and a tropical storm is due to hit any day. To make matters worse, unknown to Ben, this same drilling station has been targeted by a group of Arab terrorists, approaching by way of a smuggler's chartered boat. Drawing from his own experience as a commercial diver, debut author McKinna is generous with the details of his trade, which, while initially absorbing, sometimes slow the story's momentum. Not until late in the book does the plot finally coalesce. McKinna's story of man vs. sea holds enough surprises to provide entertainment, however.
