Four days at sea. One boat. Something in the water that knows your name. Mona Farrell can read anyone. It's the trick under all her tricks — the skill that sold eleven million dollars of yachts last year and the one that's about to win her the corner office. All she has to do is ride along on a four-day delivery run and shake the buyer's hand at the far end. Eben Tolman works alone. The best delivery captain on the coast has exactly one rule, and he's breaking it for double the fee — and for a saleswoman who reads him like open water within six hours of leaving the dock. Then Mona hears...

This, the first in the splendid series of Jack Aubrey novels, establishes the friendship between Captain Aubrey, Royal Navy, and Stephen Maturin, ship's surgeon and intelligence agent, against the thrilling backdrop of the Napoleonic wars. Details of life aboard a man-of-war in Nelson's navy are faultlessly rendered: the conversational idiom of the officers in the ward room and the men on the lower deck, the food, the floggings, the mysteries of the wind and the rigging, and the road of broadsides as the great ships close in battle.

Out in the open ocean, far beyond shipping lanes and rescue routes, something ancient is hunting again. Crandle’s Keep is a remote island refuge—quiet, isolated, and surrounded by deep, uncharted waters. For Jake Crandle, it was supposed to be a sanctuary from the past. For marine biologist Amy Caldwell, it was a temporary research stop to study warming ocean currents. For a handful of others, it was simply another waypoint at sea. None of them knew they had entered a feeding ground. When ships begin vanishing without distress calls, when steel hulls are torn open as if they were paper,...

The result is a cold, unsettling thriller that lingers long after the final page, proving that the most frightening predator is not the loudest—but the most patient. PRIMORDIAL We Didn’t Create It. We Remembered It. They ...
