Narrator Chloe Dolandis keeps the tension high in this creepy YA thriller. Sia Gianopoulos has diving in her blood. After a charter dive goes wrong and the boat is wrecked by a monstrous creature, Sia washes up on an island with a handful of survivors and a lot of questions. Dolandis nails the pacing that is key to this type of story. The mystery plays out slowly enough to build the suspense to a fever pitch, then goes into overdrive for the action. As Sia dictates letters telling the story to her incarcerated father, Dolandis’s subtle performance creates a heightened sense of terror. The sequences detailing Sia’s deep ocean dives will have listeners holding their breath—and maybe wanting to give it a try. N.M. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2020]
