Something in the Water (Coming Soon)
About
The fisherman left at dawn.
By midmorning, his boat was drifting. Engine running. No body. No explanation.
In Padstow, journalist Emma Carlisle has been keeping a list. A beloved B&B owner who attacked his wife without warning. A dive instructor arrested for manslaughter, bewildered by her own hands. A snorkelling group that never came back. A seal carcass with bite marks too large for anything that belongs in British waters.
The list keeps growing.
When a great white shark attacks during a community swimming event, Emma calls the one person she has spent eight years avoiding: Alex Warren, shark researcher, the man who put her in the water that left her scarred. Alex arrives with expertise she needs and a history she isn't ready for.
But as the attacks escalate and the bodies mount, Emma begins to see a pattern that points not to the sea, but to a pharmaceutical company with green credentials, clean hands, and something buried on the seabed.
Something in the water is making people dangerous.
Something in the water is making the sharks worse.
And the people responsible will do anything to keep it there.
