For reasons unknown to Luke, he’s brought in to make the trip to the bottom and re-establish contact with Clayton and the others. Luke Nelson is the brother of Clayton Nelson, one of the scientists trapped on the bottom.
As the book opens, contact with the three scientists at the research station has been lost.
The only possible hope for a cure lies in a research station at the bottom of the Marianas Trench in the Pacific, in the form of a new sort of biological organism. The plot: it’s present day, and the human population is being ravaged to extinction by a new disease called the ‘Gets. It’s a good thriller from one of the better writers of the genre. This book moves at a fast clip: no lengthy expositions or wasted time. It’s the formula he uses, and he does it very well. With his second novel, The Deep, author Nick Cutter has his modus operandi firmly established: keep the number of main characters to five or less, put them in an isolated setting, add in a biological menace to terrorize the characters, and a dash of blood, and voila, you have a thriller/horror novel.
