Former naval doctor Peter Crane is urgently summoned to a remote oil platform in the North Atlantic to help diagnose a bizarre medical condition spreading through the rig. But when he arrives, Crane learns that the real trouble lies far below—on Deep Storm, a stunningly advanced science research facility built two miles beneath the surface on the ocean floor. The top-secret structure has been designed for one purpose: to excavate a recently discovered undersea site that may hold the answers to a mystery steeped in centuries of myth and speculation.
Sworn to secrecy, Dr. Crane descends to Deep Storm.
A year earlier, he is told, routine drilling uncovered the remains of mankind’s most sophisticated ancient civilization: the legendary Atlantis. But now that the site is being excavated, a series of disturbing illnesses has begun to affect the operation. As Crane is indoctrinated into the strange world of Deep Storm and commences his investigation, he begins to suspect that the covert facility conceals something more complicated than a medical mystery. The discovery of Atlantis might, in fact, be a cover for something far more sinister…and deadly.

This book was totally not for me, so I don’t know that I will have much to say in this review. A few weeks ago, one of the later books in the series showed up on my BookBub recommendations. I hate jumping into the middle of a series, so I decided to check out the first book (this one) so that I could see what I thought. The premise of the book sounded really intriguing, as did the other books in the series. As someone with a medical background, I’m all for a medical mystery/thriller. Outbreak is one of my favorite movies of all time, so I went into it thinking it might be something along those lines. Boy, was I wrong!!! It very quickly turned into a military conspiracy, sci-fi alien invasion book, and that is not my thing. I consider myself a fairly intelligent person, but so much of this book went way over my head. Once I realized the kind of book this was, I really struggled holding my attention to it, and even considered DNF’ing a few times. The only thing that got me to power through it was knowing that I could use this book to meet a yearly challenge lol. I’m not saying anything negative about the author or the book itself. But having never read this author before, I felt a bit misled by the description of the book, and despite how interesting the other books in the series sound…I won’t be reading anymore from this series, and likely, this author.
