Dark Dive

A Thriller (Underwater Investigation Unit, Book 5)

De: Andrew Mayne

Narrado por: Susannah Jones

A Wall Street Journal bestselling series.

Searching for a missing diver takes a Florida detective on a deep-diving adventure in a gripping thriller by the Amazon Charts bestselling author of Sea Castle.

After the Underwater Investigation Unit’s disbandment, public outcry ushers Sloan McPherson and her partner, former navy diver Scott Hughes, back into the depths of crime solving. But Sloan’s return comes with a personal case.

Longtime family friend Fred Stafford has disappeared. Left behind: his abandoned truck in the vicinity of an unmarked sinkhole and new findings that have Sloan second-guessing everything she thought she knew about the man. There are his gambling debts, his association with a treasure-hunting band of underwater cavern junkies called the Dive Rats, and most alarming of all, a discovery in Stafford’s storage shed that raises the stakes even higher and plunges Sloan into an unfathomable mystery.

As Sloan’s investigation unfolds, a tragic Florida cold case, local superstitions, and a shocking conspiracy collide. For Sloan, finding Stafford and uncovering the buried secrets of the past soon drag her deeper into the dark unknown than she feared.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A solid mystery with an underwater backdrop.” —Kirkus Reviews

“I have read all the entries in this series and will continue to read them as new ones come forth. Why? Because they are highly entertaining and have characters I relate to and admire.” —George Easter, Deadly Pleasures Mystery Magazine

Great story line

I feel as if some parts with the first body's should of been told more about over all good

Another great book

I've enjoyed all of Mayne's books. I love the intelligence of his characters and how he includes scientific and archeological explanations that back up parts of his stories.

Twisty as always. Love the FL history!

Another wonderful story by Andrew Mayne, full of great lore, daring dives, and would-love-to-know-them characters.

Another great addition to the Andrew Manye library.

Solid as always. More character development for the series and some setup for a wider universe. Great !

Great book!

Love these characters and cannot wait until the next book comes out! Each book is better than the one before.

What’s next? Can’t wait!

Story: superb! Reader: superb! Characters: Siberia! Author: still amazingly clever, always compelling! Another winning entree in his series of mystery procedurals.

Good story .. but children’s book narration for a crime thriller is weird.

Good story and character’s .. but children’s book narration for a crime thriller is kinda weird.

Twisted thriller, great performance!

I love Andrew Mane's UIU adventures almost as much as his Theo Cray and Jessica Blackwood books, which my adult daughter and I really love. We love the way he writes strong, capable women , often with a wicked sense of humor. Their relationships with men are well written. We like that his heros are good people with a conscience who don't like lying. This is SO refreshing. And whoever chooses the performers for these series, PLEASE DON'T EVER CHANGE THEM. They are phenomenal. True performers. Their voices are not only easy and enjoyable to listen to, but so well cast that I can forget that it is only one person performing at a time. Even when it is a man voicing a woman's part and vice-versa. Most all of Andrew's stories have twists but this one really went sideways. Loved it. Couldn't stop listening.

Weird Things underwater

If you like finding Weird Things underwater thing this book is for you. A nice continuation of the storyline with some references to dark parts of Florida’s recent past. I was expecting a magic trick or two but in this tale Andrew’s familiarity with OpenAI and Chat-GPT shine through and provide some footings for future books.

Another great story!

This was another great story in the series! I love that the team got back together in this one and that the unit is officially back. The story was well written and had plenty of twists and turns as they tried to figure things out and how they were connected. I have had the previous books in the series so was fully engaged with our characters prior to starting this one but I found it very engaging and it kept me hooked the whole time. We get to see a little bit of a different side to Sloan as she has a close call at the beginning of the story and then is grappling with some reactions after the fact and figuring out what they mean. This was another great thriller and another great case that held my attention the whole time. I can’t wait for the next one! The narrator did a great job with the story as well and bringing the different characters to life as well as the action happening in the story.
