DEEP BLUE
By Tom Morrisey
Review by Laura V. Hilton

Former marine diver Beck Easton has planned on a slow, hot summer running his small dive shop. He specializes in cave diving—a sport of some controlled risk. He has a black belt in the karate, and all kinds of tricks up his sleeves from his stint in the military. But he doesn’t expect someone like Jennifer Cassidy to make his summer more exciting.

Jennifer Cassidy is a university graduate assistant who loves research. When she is hired by a Civil War widow to find a valuable secret hidden at the bottom of a Florida spring, she immediately heads to the Detroit, Michigan airport and flies to Tallahassee, Florida. There, she looks up Beck Easton and tries to involve him in her quest. After all, she needs an experienced diver.

Intrigued by Jennifer’s story, Beck agrees to help. But it soon becomes apparent that someone is trailing Jennifer. One man has already died for this secret—is it worth more deaths?

DEEP BLUE is book one in A Beck Easton Adventure series. It is intriguing, a man who makes a living diving in caves. I liked the unusual occupation. There is a lot of research that Mr. Morrisey did to write this story, which is based on true events. Jennifer is delightfully innocent, and confused by some of the events. However, Beck falls just on the side of flat.

I was caught up in the storyline immediately and couldn’t wait to get back to the book to find out what happened next. I recommend DEEP BLUE for those tired of the same-ole storylines. This is delightfully different. $12.99. 344 pages.
