Adriana Ballantyne


This internship is her second choice. She really wanted the archeological dig.

Archeology – that’s Adriana’s passion.

But the reef has its secrets too. Hundreds of years of history. The unimaginable wealth of a new world and the people who gambled their lives for a chance to control it – conquistadors and pirates, cruel sea captains and 13-year-old cabin boys.

Bit by bit, she begins to unravel the puzzle – only to find that the truth lies hidden under hundreds of feet of ocean. A pitch-black world of permanent midnight where enormous pressure squeezes even regular air into a deadly poison.

A place where few divers can survive.
