Free diving specialists discover a massive horror welling up from the depths. Pressure will take you to depths you never imagined – and not just beneath the ocean. This is a perfect beach read for fans of Michael Crichton, Mira Grant, or Preston and Childif you dare to take this book anywhere near an open body of water.” Booklist, starred review“Keene brings fear to the ocean’s depths with a brand new story of a monster so petrifying that it makes Jaws
