In The Killing Depths by Martin Roy Hill NCIS agent Linus Schag is sent aboard the USS Encinitas to investigate the death of Jenny Muller. Jenny Muller’s death was originally reported a suicide but there are minor details of her death that have led investigators to wonder if her death was really murder. The USS Encinitas is in pursuit of the Crescent Moon, a renegade Iranian submarine armed with nuclear-tipped missiles; the mission is to sink the Crescent Moon at all cost. Returning to shore to investigate the murder of Jenny Muller is not an option. The case must be solved in the depths of the ocean, even as other women start turning up dead.

The Killing Depths is a deadly game of hide-and-seek between a misogynistic killer, a co-ed crew of submariners, and a NCIS agent determined to solve the case. I was captivated almost immediately and the intensity didn’t let up until I closed the cover and was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. This was such a powerful and emotionally draining psychological thriller. I highly recommend that you look it up and add it to your must-read list.
