From Below

De: Darcy Coates

Narrado por: Abby Craden

No light. No air. No escape.

Hundreds of feet beneath the ocean's surface, a graveyard waits. Years ago, the SS Arcadia vanished without a trace during a routine voyage. Though a strange, garbled emergency message was broadcast, neither the ship nor any of its crew could be found. Sixty years later, its wreck has finally been discovered more than three hundred miles from its intended course: a silent graveyard deep beneath the ocean's surface, eagerly waiting for the first sign of life.

Cove and her dive team have been granted permission to explore the Arcadia's rusting hull. Their purpose is straightforward: examine the wreck, film everything, and, if possible, uncover how and why the supposedly unsinkable ship vanished. But the Arcadia has not yet had its fill of death, and something dark and hungry watches from below. With limited oxygen and the ship slowly closing in around them, Cove and her team will have to fight their way free of the unspeakable horror now desperate to claim them.

Spooky, mysterious and happy ending

The performance was riveting and vocals great to listen to. I will look for more narrations by the speaker

From Below

This book kept me engage and entertain with spooky vibes from deep under the cold sea.

Non-stop Action

The basic story surrounding the actual dives was interesting, but I found it exhausting to listen to. The story of the last days of the Arcadia involved what I think was unrealistic reactions of those on board, although after the third dive a rational explanation was offered.

Terrifying, intense and claustrophobic

This book- cleverly revealed in parallel timelines - pulls you in with increasingly frightening hooks, builds with continually mounting and inexorable dread, and keeps you mesmerized as it terrifyingly catapults you to the end. Wow!

At least there was a resolution?

Overly breathless, too much tell and not enough show. There wasn't enough story for the length, and it seemed half the time dwelled on someone feeling some variety of uneasy. It tried too hard to make the reader feel scared instead of allowing it to happen naturally.
