"Claustrophobics beware! David Poyer's suspenseful cave-diving novel, DOWN TO A SUNLESS SEA, takes readers into water crevices, submerged limestone tunnels, cramped wormholes and subterranean hell holes that give suffocation new meaning . . . Vivid, believable descriptions . . .We can get the fear and adrenaline of cave-diving without ever leaving the dry safety of our favorite comfy chairs." - Tallahassee Sun Democrat
"Depth: 105. Wriggling like an eel, he forced himself up into the narrow gap he'd created . . . Rocks scraped and clattered away. A hint of doubt - should he be doing this? - was answered by the calm comfort that pervaded his mind now. Nothing was going to happen. Everything was going to be all right. . . . ."
Welcome to the most dangerous sport on earth: where cave divers step into murky Florida ponds and end up hundreds of feet below the ground, threading through the narrow passages of Swiss-cheese-like rock formations, heading down tunnels that may open into caverns of breathtaking beauty, or else suddenly collapse in rockfalls that crush out their air and their lives.
Open-water diver and ex-con Tiller Galloway has come to this watery underworld to find out why an old friend died young - and take one last shot at being a father, a lover, and a friend. But with a woman opening up her heart, and a deadly conspiracy closing in around him, Galloway must navigate between lies told aboveground and truths hidden in the depths . . . where a violent battle is about to explode.
Combining the knife-edged action of Clive Cussler with the heart stopping storytelling skill of John D. MacDonald, USA Today-bestselling Dave Poyer continues to be one of American's most popular and remarkable thriller writers . . . and a master of underwater suspense.
"A ripping good read! Poyer raises the bar with this one. The cave-diving scenes are riveting, claustrophobic, terrifying, and beautiful." - Booklist
