Sea Storm

This is the third out of four books in Mayne’s “Underwater Investigation Unit” series (following Black Coral). Sloan McPherson is a Florida police officer and diver working in a small department known as the Underwater Investigative Unit (UIU). When a cruise ship must be evacuated because it is sinking off the coast, McPherson and her partner are called to assist. While rescuing passengers and crew, they discover damage caused by explosions, plus an empty compartment that is not accounted for on the ship’s blueprint. The fear that eco-terrorism is the cause of the attack brings in the FBI. McPherson becomes suspicious when key elements of the investigation are sidelined. Mayne provides a complex scenario that will leave listeners guessing what will happen next. The narration is well performed by Susannah Jones.
