Dangerous Depths: 7an Underwater Investigation

By Kathy Brandt

Book Overview

Trying to save an endangered species doesn't normally make one a target for extinction. But police diver Hannah Sampson has her doubts when she pulls her friend Elyse out of the sea, barely alive. Although the chief believes it was an accident, Hannah knows Elyse is a staunch environmentalist, and never hesitated to harass anyone who threatened her beloved natural habitat. Hannah is sure this is no accident-but attempted murder. Now, she must find the would-be killer before he finishes the job.

Dangerous Depths: An Underwater Investigation

The book came fast and was in great shape. I'll definately order from them again!

Part of a great series

And this is a great book in that series. An easy and enjoyable read, very entertaining, and wonderfully written.

Dangerous Depths

Third in a great series. This book, in particular, will take you for a ride both above and underwater with enough twists and surprises to satisfy any reader. I have a love of diving and a healthy respect for the Sea. It is obvious Kathy Brandt does too. Through her facinating main character, Hannah Sampson, she tells a heck of a yarn, but in so doing gives us all a tast of beauty, danger, romance and the need to respect our "one earth" and its endangered species.

Dangerous Depths

Three in a row for Kathy Brandt!! I couldn't put Dangerous Depths down after the first page. Great mystery , wonderful story and I even leaned something. I can't wait for number 4.Go Kathy Brandt - Go Hannah Sampson!!!!

exciting police procedural

Police underwater diver and homicide investigator Hannah Sampson went down to the British Virgin Island as a favor to her boss who wanted someone on his team nearby during the inquiries into the death of his son there. Hannah loved it so much that she quit her job in Denver and went to work as a detective in BVI in Tortuga. After a year of living there she has a lover, good friends and a houseboat where she can look out at the sea every day. One day she is awakened by an explosion and sees the Caribbe on fire and sinking into the water. She dives and brings up her friend Elyse Henry who lapses into a coma. Evidence points to the incident being an accident because she left her propane stove on, which apparently sparked and caught fire. Hannah's instinct tells her somebody was trying to murder her friend. In defiance of her boss' orders to leave the case alone, the determined Hannah tries to prove her instincts are correct, but almost gets killed in the process. DANGEROUS DEPTHS is an exciting police procedural set in an exotic setting. What makes the attempt on Elyse's life interesting is that she didn't have an enemy with a motive to murder her; so readers keep wondering why as they seek along aside the heroine to find out who the killer is. Armchair travelers beware! Once you read this book, you'll want to hop at plane and visit the unspoiled British Virgin Islands. Harriet Klausner
