A thrilling adventure set in the world of underwater diving from
acclaimed suspense novelist Peter Abrahams, aka Spencer Quinn, author of
the Chet and Bernie Mysteries.
Deciding on her 39th birthday that a baby is the best present she could
give herself, single Manhattan public relations executive Nina Kitchener
makes an appointment to undergo artificial insemination at the Human
Fertility Institute. Nine months later the nightmare begins. Just hours
after she gives birth, someone kidnaps her infant son from the nursery.
The police aren't helping, the fertility institute has shut down, and
Nina believes that the only way to find her baby is to learn the
identity of the sperm donor.
Nina's hunt for answers leads her to the Bahamas and the rich, reclusive
Standish family, who funded the institute. But Nina isn't the only one
investigating them. Joining forces with divorced ex-Navy SEAL and
deep-sea diver Nate Matthias, Nina is unprepared for the horrors they
uncover. A long-buried secret that dates back to Nazi survivors of World
War II is still deadly enough to threaten Nina's life, her baby's, and
that of the mysterious man who's protecting her.
