What Lies Below

Harbour Grace, Newfoundland, 1943

Petty Officer John Kelly of the British Royal Navy arrives in Harbour Grace on an L27 submarine, haunted by his part in a shadowy execution on the Atlantic Ocean.

Soon after arriving he meets Madonna,  a vivacious servant girl from Riverhead, Harbour Grace's Catholic quarter.

Their blossonimg love affair gives John a chance for salvation, but in this fiercely tribal town, secrets never lie far below the surface, and atonement is paid for in blood.

Seamlessly weaving fact with fiction Patrick creates a compelling story that will love in your memory.
