The author spends much time in the Caribbean diving & his experiences inform his graphic depictions of places in his murder mysteries. This is the second book by Sullivan I’ve read, and third in the series. This time it’s set in Belize, with vivid description of the country. Not as good as the first, I was confused as to why the villain targeted the main characters so ruthlessly. The logic didn’t quite follow for me. Other than that, it was an enjoyable read with likeable characters. I especially was attuned to his description of Mennonites, having just read Menno Moto & feeling pretty well-versed about its culture (& coincidentally I learned on the History channel tonight that Kraft—the inventor of American cheese—was Mennonite). The author’s description felt authentic & in his afterword he says he has relatives who are Mennonite. I plan to read more in this series.

I have listened to 2 of Mr. Sullivan's books in the last few years, both part of the Deep Series. One of my favorite things about this book/series is how the author is also the orator. He portrays the characters and tells the story in the way that he wants it to be.
The Caribbean has some of the greatest and best diving locations in the world. Having never traveled to any of the locations mentioned in this book, I had a blast being taken on a tour of Belize. Boone and Emily are ever amazing and take curve-balls like champs.
The audio recording of this book was pristine. I have no complaints or criticisms. It was flawless. As for Mr. Sullivan's narrating, I have already commented on his amazing acting and reading. He gets the job done, and he gets it done right. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and look forward to future adventures!
